1 Structure problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2010

I recently purchased a 2010 vw Passat which has a chrome bezel around the shifter. The chrome bezel reflects light into the drivers eyes when the sun is directly over head blinding the driver during vehicle operation. I contacted the vw help desk about 10 days and filed a complaint. I received a phone call from vw yesterday and they told me not enough people have complained about this problem. I have also contacted the dealership who seemed to be pretty receptive in getting this matter resolved. They ordered a new black on black shifter which was the only other replacement part and it is the same one that I currently have. Please contact me for I have several photos which demonstrate this potentially deadly design flaw.
