6 Windshield problem of the 2010 GMC Terrain

Failure Date: 06/14/2010

Very intense reflection of dashboard image onto the lower third of windshield, causing a reduction in visibility. The reflection is very pronounced in bright sunlight, and is somewhat reduced on cloudy days, but is a constant problem in all daylight driving situations. Also I am having some intermittent reflection of chrome plated parts in the interior, causing visibility problems.

When the sun is high and shining through the windshield, it reflects off the chrome on the storage compartment latch, the heater/ac panel, the radio controls and the chrome around the gear shift lever and cup holders directly into the eyes of the driver. It blinds you, I almost had an accident the first time it happened to me.
