2007 Honda Fit. Washed the car, started the car and noticed a sizzle noise coming front the area of the switches on the door. Turned ignition off for two minutes and started the car again with a sizzle noise coming from the door switches again. Started the car one hour later, no sizzle noise, rolled the window down 3", in about 30 to 60 seconds the window rolled itself back up.

The a pillar is very wide and can easily obstruct the view of 1-2 people walking across the street. I am a 4'11" driver, who drives slowly and carefully and have almost hit several pedestrians who were walking across the street as I was crossing through an intersection due to complete visual obstruction of them due to the a-pillars on both the driver's side and the passenger side. If I raise myself up using a cushion on the seat and subsequently raise the steering wheel up to allow for my legs to pass under it, then the steering wheel obstructs the view of the speedometer. I would like to see either a more adjustable seat or a change in position of the a pillar to allow for better vision for a short driver in this car. Unfortunately, I think I'll have to sell this car in order to not run the risk of hitting a pedestrian.

I almost got into a car accident, I knew the car had this blind spots but never knew where so dangerous. Not just traditional blind spots but even worse front and back blind spots making it difficult to make turns when intersecting another road.
