I am over 6 feet tall. I have the driver seat as far down as it will go. I have the rearview mirror up as high as it will go. Even with those three things, the mirror is in the middle of the windshield and blocks pedestrians and other cars. I have at least in the last year almost hit someone four or five times. I simply when I come to an intersection have to bend forward and to the left just to see over to the right this is a major design flaw for anybody over 6 feet tall. I will remove the mirror if I have to because in our state, you just have to have one rear word, facing mirror and the left or the right mirrors on the door count again this is a major safety concern for anyone over 6 feet. I think it has something to do with this forward facing radar having to mount it so low. Regardless, it’s still dangerous.
On my commute home I heard a small pebble hit my windshield. I came home parked in the garage and two days later, there’s a crack half way across my windshield. This is extremely dangerous, in over 8 vehicles I've owned and had much bigger rocks hit my windshield this has never created a crack, especially days after a small impact. What happens if it shatters due to the impact of a rock. It should be built to withstand small impacts.
