2017 Bounder with instrument panel problem

We cannot see our instrument panel driving in bright sunlight with sunglasses on. Has anyone else had this problem and how was it fixed? We have called Ford, Fleetwood and to date have not gotten anywhere with this issue.

  • We have talked to Ford, Fleetwood and local dealer and they all say that they have never heard of this issue. Baloney. This needs to be addressed. Coming down out of the mountains on a very windy road, I had no idea how fast I was going.
  • I have noticed this on my Miramar as well. The dash gauges are hard to see during the day, especially with sunglasses on. The large overhang over the dash keeps the gauges in the shade. However, I can see fine when the lights are on.
  • only light up at night
    find the photo/light sensor and unplug it
  • I just spent over $100 getting non polarized rx sunglasses. Did not work. Also, my headlights are already on and it does not light up, only at night. So frustrated. Thanks for your help.
  • I've heard of the problem and you might try Polaroid lenses OR non-Polaroid lenses. I can't remember which it is but the problem also extends to GPS screens, etc.
