1 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 09/11/2010

The side visibility on my 2007 Honda crv is dangerous. I have never had a problem like this with any of the numerous vehicles I have owned. This has happened multiple times at a variety of speeds. Regardless of how I set the side view mirrors, I have nearly caused collisions because of the blind spot. ¿ because I am aware of this design deficiency, I am as careful as possible when changing lanes, I use my signal, look in the mirror, turn my head and then look in the mirror again. Nevertheless, this is not sufficient. This does not happen when I drive other vehicles. If there is some device that can be added to the car I would suggest doing so.

2 Visibility problem

Failure Date: 11/27/2008

On 2007 and newer Honda crvs,, the side view mirrors are not convex as the are on most vehicle. This design defect results in a very large blind area, especially on the driver's side, that is still causing numerous problems after 2 years of driving due to inability to see cars driving anywhere close to the car. I have discussed this significant blind spot with several other Cr-v owners and all have felt this is a serious problem.
