| I gave my daugther this car based on many good reviews. however after driving it at night i notice i could not see more then three (3) strips on the driver side. i took the car back to the dealer who said that it was within limits. so off i go. coming home on a dark country road i hit a grabage bag that was on my side of the dotted line, but i could not avoid hitting it at 50mph. from the time i saw it in my headlights, (again can only see three dotted lines down the road) left me with not enough time to avoid hitting the bag. this is the worst part of the car and to me has created a major concern that the car is now for sale and the car will not be drivin at night.*ak | |||
