yeah i have noticed that too.. if you adjust your passenger outside mirror just right it will pick up this blind spot..
it's caused by the LARGE C-pillar blocking the view..

Passenger side blind spot
I know this has been posted on before, but it has been awhile, and since it nearly caused me two wrecks recently, I thought I would post it again.
When a car pulls up almost parallel with your tC, it seems it does not appear in the rear view mirror, and I have almost changed lanes into cars about four times since I have had my car. I am a very careful driver and always turn my head to look, too, but these times I guess I didn't check soon enough. I re-adjusted my mirrors each time, but apparently this did not help much.
I am not saying this car is much worse than any other, or that this is a defect, but you all, just be careful.
Have any of you had this experience?

or you could jsutmove yourhead forward when looking into the right passenger side mirror instead of looking back. haha always gets it.
Spot mirrors also work. My mom has them on her Sienna. Talk about blind spots! You could smash a Lotus Elise and not even know it. But with spot mirrors you can even see small dogs on the left and right of the van.
I have no problems except occasionally pulling out from my street due to a) horrible street positioning, b) b-pillar blocking. I have to BARELY poke my nose out and lean forward and look to the right to see around. Doesn't help that everyone speeds through that neighborhood so you have to be uber cautious.
No other problems though.
