THE RIGHT SIDE MIRROR DESIGN ON THIS VAN IS THE WORST I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. THE UPPER PART OF THE MIRROR MAGNIFIES YOUR VIEW WHILE THE LOWER REDUCES IT. IT TAKES GREAT CONCENTRATION TO MAKE A SAFE LANE CHANGE WHEN MOVING TO THE RIGHT. THE POOR DESIGN OF THIS MIRROR IS GOING TO CAUSE ACCIDENTS. THE DESIGN NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND A DIRECTIVE TO FORD SHOULD BE ISSUED TO RECALL AND FIX THE MIRRORS. THIS VAN IS OWNED BY ENTERPRISE RENTAL CARS. WE USE IT AS OUR VAN POOL VEHICLE. *TR
