THE WEATHER FORECEAST FOR THE DAY WAS SUNNY WITH A HIGH OF 76 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT. NO EXTERNAL CONTACT WAS MADE TO THE SUNROOF GLASS PRIOIR TO THE INCIDENT. NO INVESTIGATION WAS DESIRED BY BOTH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP OR GENERAL MOTORS ON THE INCIDENT ITSELF. BOTH HAVE DIRECTED ME TO MAKING AN INSURANCE CLAIM TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHEN REVERSE IS ACTIVATED AT NIGHT, THE BACKUP CAMERA COMES ON AT FULL BRIGHTNESS AND IS NOT DIMMABLE. THE BRIGHT SCREEN PREVENTS VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR AND SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES VISIBILITY IN THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR WHILE REVERSING. THE SCREEN CANNOT BE DEACTIVATED AND BLINDS THE DRIVER. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE.
