2017 Toyota Highlander wipers, windshield & visibility problems

The bulky side mirror on the driver's side creates a safety hazard when making a left hand turn because of a large blind spot. I was involved in an accident due to that very reason. I was making a left hand turn as described above. I checked for oncoming traffic several times and turned when I saw traffic was clear. I was hit on the driver's side because my visibility was blocked by the mirror and the oncoming vehicle was not seen.

Bought this 2017 highlander brand-new from the dealer. It had 67 miles on the odometer. Within a few thousand miles, a stone chipped the windshield and within days the windshield was a spider's nest of spreading cracks all across up and down the windshield. I bought a new 2015 highlander from the same dealer and had the exact same problem after just a few thousand miles.
