    Visibility/Wiper

    Certain angles of the sun in morning or afternoon cause a reflection on the windshield from the dashboard which makes it impossible to see the road. Primarily with a dark background when traveling through a neighborhood with trees or buildings. The glare off the top of the dashboard to the windshield just makes it impossible to see the road.

    Electrical System · Visibility/Wiper

    Driving down the road and the wipers stopped working, no visibly at all!!!! Turns out its the power control module, aka the fuse box. Not the wiper motor, switch etc... No way to predict when it will go. Super dangerous!!!

    Visibility/Wiper

    The heating and air conditions system would not operate. Windows fogged up and defroster would not operate at all. Lost complete visibility almost immediately. Had to pull over and manually remove fog from inside windows. Had to do this numerous times until arrived at home. In shop now for repairs unknown at this time what caused failure. Suspect control head failure. *tr
