The steering wheel blocks the drivers line of sight to the speedometer. No adjustment to the seat helps. I'm 5'11" tall and can not see the indicator above 30 and below 75mph. Ford says it can't be fixed and to buy one the next time with a tilt steering wheel. I am afraid myself or one of my drivers may be injured during cornering when reduced speed is required.
