Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased this vehicle in dec of 06 and one month into having this car and driving on my normal routes that i realize that this car has zero visibility. no windows in the back that allow you to switch lanes safely or even back up from a parking lot or area safely. i just recently had an accident as well. i already know this car has no visibility to it takes me longer than usual to back up or switch lanes. i look at my side and rear view mirrors and do a complete turn past my black spot to ensure no cars are there, however even doing that you can still have an accident like i did when after looking waiting and then proceeding that i missed a small honda prelude come behind me. this is a serious hazard for all drivers. owners and others on the road. i have never had an accident since i was 18 yrs old and here i am 8 mos into having this car and i have one. *tr
