When the sun shines on the navigation screen in our 2013 Dodge Dart, it makes the touchscreen controls nearly invisible.

    The AC controls are only complicated if you're Riswick, as the comments in that post made clear.

    Compare this... mess... with the Forte's fine touchscreen and climate control layout, and you'll see why Fiasler can't give these turds away.

    Yeah, this is the same Uconnect screen & user interface that has been praised to the moon by pretty much everyone. Take your anti-American trolling back to Russia, commie!

    I can't recall a single LT car that has had a screen that didn't washout to oblivion in the setting or rising sun. So par for the course I guess?

    Try again, misterfusion. I was referring not only to the overrated Uconnect system, but also to the poor Fiasler design, haphazard Fiasler panel fitment and cheap Fiasler plastics surrounding it. EVERYONE does a better job at this, even the Koreans.

    @hybris - The Mercedes COMAND system in our SLS AMG was absolutely the best at it: http://www.edmunds.com/mercedes-benz/sls-amg/2012/long-term-road-test/2012-mercedes-benz-sls-amg-roadster-let-the-sun-shine-in.html

    I can't believe they are still referring to old articles with inaccurate information?! YOU CAN DETERMINE THE FAN SPEED ALL THE TIME!!

    i have a 2013 300 and theres no arguing that this touchscreen would benefit from some type of shroud, or at least an on-demand angle adjustment. my 2011 mazda had an adjustment feature that i thought was for taller drivers until i had the sunroof open and the sun beaming in my eyes, reflecting on the screen.

    the real crime here is that shiny plastic surrounding the screen. what were they thinking??
