  VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD

  WITH THE FROST INTERIOR COLOR THE DASH REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT CONDITIONS PARTIALLY OBSCURING VISION FORWARD. IT IS COMPARABLE TO A LIGHT FOG, AND THE EFFECT IS GREAT WHEN LOOKING INTO A SHADED AREA (GARAGE, UNDERPASS, TUNNEL). I USE. *AK

  DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WILL NOT LATCH ALL OF THE TIME. SOME TIMES IT DOES. SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT. CLICKING THE RELEASE BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES SEEMS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM WOULD NOT MANIFEST ITSELF WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT.*AK
