Cluster lamp in dash has digital display that is not visible in bright sun light. This makes any warnings not visible. Can be hazardous with out the door/tailgate symbols visible. When driving the display is not legible, it appears that the lamps are not lit, the surrounding lights illuminate the cluster at night.
In direct sunlight the odometer/multifunction display is not readable. The display serves as an annunciator warning device for rear and side doors not closed properly. It is possible to drive with the rear door not secured and the warning to indicate this is not able to be read in the direct sunlight. Interestingly enough the display is brighter by turning on the lights on in the park lamp mode as opposed to the automatic mode. This seems to be a software resolvable issue.
