    Does anyone else have trouble seeing traffic lights with the sun visor down? Maybe it’s because I sit up right while driving, but I avoid using the sun visor as much as possible while driving in the city because I have a hard time seeing traffic lights with it down.

    Every vehicle I've ever owned has that trait; when I approach a red traffic light I flip the sun visor up, then pull it back down when I get a green light, if I still need it. I actually wish the Mirage's sun visors were a little taller and wider because sometimes they're just not big enough.

    Short person may appreciate a larger visor. A tall person would probably prefer a smaller one to be able to still see under it.

    I've had a few vehicles where the visor doesn't really work all that well (blocking to much of my view), but the Mirage visor has been one of the better ones for me (6' 1").

    This is a little weird... but smell gets strapped in my car for a long time. Whenever I have food in the car, the smell lingers for awhile even when I drive with the windows down for couple hours afterward. Maybe it's a small car thing.

    Same with my ride but it reeks of cannabis. I have no idea why either.

    Have you checked or changed your cabin air filter since buying your car?
