Issue: The way the roof has been designed in the Jimny causes all accumulated water on the roof during rains to slide down the front windshield whenever the vehicle is slowing down or when brakes are applied. This causes loss of vision if one has to brake in rains as the water comes down in sheets across the windshield. Potentially very dangerous situation as it can lead to loss of control of vehicle.
