Example complaints

“Terrible blind spot resulting from side mirrors and roof pillars when turning right or left. Worse on right turns. Can't see pedestrians. The mirror and roof pillar creates a 24 inch wide blind spot. Making it worse is the fact that the power seat doesn't go high enough for me to see over mirrors( I am 5'8 ). No accident, only close calls and surprises.”
