Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The large driver side mirror, combined with the low seat causes a large blind spot. Any vehicles or pedestrian on the drivers left side are difficult be see. I am uploading a picture of the view I have while sitting in the drivers seat. In the picture where the red arrow is pointing there is actually a street coming out on the left side of the vehicle. As you can see the driver cannot possibly have a clear view of traffic or pedestrians coming from that street on the left side.”

NHTSA complaint #11153633, filed 2018-11, 8,000 miles
