- - - THE PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR IS A POOR AND DANGEROUS DESIGN FEATURE. THERE ARE TWO (2) ROOF FRAME SUPPORTS ON EACH SIDE AT THE WINDSHIELD. ONE IS FOR THE WINDSHIELD THE OTHER IS FOR THE SMALL SIDE WINDOW AND THEY BOTH COME TOGETHER AT THE TOP, AND WHEN THEY DO THEY TAKE UP SO MUCH SPACE THAT THEY TOTALLY BLOCK THE DRIVERS VIEW OF THE ROAD ON BOTH SIDES. ANY CAR OR PERSON IN THAT AREA BEHIND THE FRAME CAN NOT BE SEEN AT ALL. WHEN DRIVING THE DRIVER HAS TO CONSTANTLY BE MOVING THEIR UPPER BODY BACK AND FORTH TO SEE AROUND THE FRAME. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR I WAS NOT ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR THE FIRST WEEK DUE TO FAMILY HEALTH ISSUES THAT I HAD TO STAY AT HOME FOR. IN TWO DAYS AFTER I DID DRIVE AGAIN I ALMOST PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF AND WOULD HAVE HIT A CAR COMING AROUND A CURVE THAT COLD NOT BE SEEN BECAUSE OF THIS DANGEROUS CONSTRUCTION. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD THAT SAME CLOSE CALL OVER 1 DOZEN TIMES. IT IS SUCH A PROBLEM THAT I HARDLY EVER DRIVE THE CAR MORE THAN I HAVE TO GO TO A STORE FOR FOOD. THE CAR IS OVER 1-1/2 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE LESS THAN 2,500 MILES ON IT TO CLOSE LOCAL STORES AND FAMILY DOCTORS. - - THIS CAR IS SO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THAT IT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO BE SOLD IN THIS COUNTRY AND SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD. SOONER OR LATER IT IS GOING TO KILL PEOPLE. I HAVE ALREADY SEEN SOME IN USED CAR LOTS. IT LOOKS LIKE OWNERS ARE ALREADY GETTING RID OF THEM. *TR
