The 2014 Mdx is now equipped with a driver's side mirror that is split vertically into two pieces one larger and one smaller. The smaller mirror creates the illusion that a passing car is crashing into your vehicle. It is quite disconcerting to a driver. Both myself and my son have had this experience. It causes a driver to react to a danger that does not exist.
Sunroof explosion - Saturday 1/13/18 evening 7:30 pm driving on open highway (hardy toll road in north of houston) to airport to pick up my family. Clear skies, ~50f. While driving at 68mph heard a loud/deafening �pop�. No other cars nearby, no overpasses nearby. The glass explosion of the sunroof was spontaneous and blew up and then fell.
