My new surburban and several of those that I looked at have windshield visual distortions. Example: Vehicles looks taller and skinnier or shorter and wider than they are. It has a number of these optical ripples. The distortion, like a carnival house of mirrors, makes me dizzy and confuses speed judgements--vehicles suddenly seems bigger and closer, or smaller and farther away. Outside left hand rearview mirror likewise has ripple effect. This is ridiculous.
