Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We were driving our 40 ft motorhome down highway 491 in new mexico at approximately 60 MPH heading south toward shiprock, nm, when the electrically controlled day/night shade on the windshield came crashing down onto the dash, ripping electrical wiring totally out. Unit probably weighed 10 - 12 pounds. I struggled to maintain control of the vehicle due to the shock of the incident and to realize what had just happened. Entire shade system was now laying on dashboard. Fortunately I was not driving into the direction of the sun and no one was injured. …”
