A very serious issue with inadequate side mirror visibility: The brand new 2022 Lexus NX driver side mirror does not have a range of adjustment to safely accommodate shorter drivers. The primary driver of the vehicle is 5 feet 3 inches tall and when seat adjustments have been made, the driver side mirror does not articulate inward enough, preventing the driver from seeing the side of the vehicle nor an area near the side of vehicle. The lack of range creates a very SERIOUS LACK OF VISIBILITY OF SMALL CHILDREN, PEDESTRIANS, OR PETS that maybe standing next to the vehicle during reversing. In households with small children or in congested parking lots, the lack of driver visibility of pedestrians standing next to the vehicle poses extreme risk of pedestrians being crushed by the vehicle. The danger is especially severe if the reversing vehicle needs to turn to the driver's right side, where the left front tire will travel in a larger radius than the left rear tire, potentially striking or crushing any small pedestrian standing next to the vehicle's driver's side. The passenger side mirror range of adjustment is satisfactory, the safety issue is reported on the driver's side only.
