I cannot adjust the driver's side exterior mirror to a safe position for viewing passing traffic. I am 6'2", and mirror cannot be raised high enough or far enough to the left to safely cover adjoining lane. Dealer checked similar models in inventory; said they all have same limitation. I have never had a car with such an extreme limitation on adjustment of the outside mirror for the driver. This is very unsafe for all driving conditions. Failure is continuous.

Buick Lucerne cx-l, 4 door sedan, VIN 1g4hd57286u226635 the safety issue is that the Buick Lucerne's driver's sideview mirror cannot be adjusted for me to see cars in the driver's blind spot. Also cannot adjust the Buick Lucerne's driver's sideview mirror to give a safe view when entering an interstate highway. I have tried adjusting the driver's seat to different positions, other then my preferred position, and cannot obtain a safe side view. The car has been taken to two different Buick service departments and was informed that it is working as designed and that there have been no service bulletins addressing this concern.

Driver's mirror does not adjust adequately to view the blind spot to the driver's left rear. The passenger side mirror adjusts correctly. The driver's side "travels" about 1/2 less. I narrowly avoided colliding with another vehicle while changing lanes. The other drivers horn alerted me to the problem. Other Buick Lucernes in the dealers showroom have the same "problem".
