Visibility: rearview mirrors/devices: exterior
- What is wrong
- The right outside rearview mirror contains convex glass rather than flat. Therefore, these vehicles fail to comply with fmvss no. 111, "rearview mirrors."
- Risk
- Consequence of non-compliance: the images presented in the mirror are closer than they appear which may cause the driver to misjudge the distance from the object to the rear of the vehicle, and could result in an accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the right outside rearview mirror with a mirror having a flat surface.
