  SERVICE BRAKES

  I pulled car out of garage after a week and hear a pop. Drive had a severe wheel shudder after about a 1/4 mile returned to my house. Examined wheels the disc brake pads both sides had broke/crumbled and partially stuck in rotors. Pads are now crumbling. Car has 1200 miles bought new in August 2023. I never in my 46 years of driving and collecting cars saw anything like it. Went on Dodge forum and see similar complaints with pictures of exact same problem something is wrong and it is extremely dangerous given the weight and horsepower of these cars.

  VISIBILITY/WIPER

  It's not only related to my particular car. I moved to the US two years ago and was surprised how INSAINLY DANGEROUS driver side mirrors all of the American cars have. There is always a HUGE blind spot. People keep saying that if I adjust my mirrors properly there will be no problem, but it is not true. I've been driving for more than 10 years and now, at least once a week, I find myself in a dangerous situation. The bad thing is - it's is impossible to find a convex mirror as a replacement here. I can't believe that researches showed that the flat mirror is safer than the convex one (is there any research btw)? What's a point of installing flat mirrors on a driver's side? I went to a web forum and found this page: [XXX] (apparently form the UK) posted 2 pictures on 03/06/2023 with American's standard mirror and the convex one. Look at the difference.
