STEERING - WHEEL AND HANDLE BAR
03/03/1996
 While driving vehicle steering column started smoking, resulting in a fire. this has happened twice within (1) year.*ak
VISIBILITY - GLASS, SIDE/REAR
 Not knowing where else to place this, i chose the vehicle type only to proceed to this point. just an idea to suggest concerning vehicle design that affects safety: i have been behind vehicles traveling west in the early am or east around sunset and if a vehicles rear window is designed flat, it perfectly reflects the bright sun into the face of the driver following such a vehicle causing a serious safety hazard in that blinds the following driver. i do not know if your agency has the authority to do what i will suggest but if you do, it would be in the publics interest to require new car designs to not include flat surfaces that are positioned in a manner to reflect natural sunlight into the face of a driver behind such a vehicle. i offer this suggestion in sincerity for safety. sincerely, glenn m. barilleaux. *ak
