“2006 Freestyle sel instrument panel is hard to read and sometimes it cannot be read at all when wearing sunglasses. ***no answer required*** the visibility problem occurs mostly when traveling north and when the sun is very bright. The instrument panel is black with white numbers. The consumer was unable to see the speedometer therefore could not use the speed control. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a test drive but they indicated that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle.”
