The car vibration increases whenever the car is in drive and idling at a stop light, stop sign, parking lot, etc. During cold weather temperatures the vibration is excessive and can make a rattling noise come from the engine.

Steering wheel occludes the speedometer. Analog speedometer is in the middle of the dashboard and very large. Depending on the position of the steering wheel you loose at least 25 mph range (either on the low or high end of the spectrum). There is no digital readout which would be a simple fix to this issue as the low center part of the speedometer "ring" is always visible. Also, the driver's seat has a built in…
