Auto Question Rear View Mirror Assembly

So I bought Mrs. Pete a new (used) vehicle this weekend 2013 Ford Explorer, and it was unfortunately caught in the hail storm last week so Carmax said they would fix it for free. Okay, great. Well I go to pick it up today and the rear view mirror is very loose and bouncy. So I took the plastic plates off that cover all the wiring and lane keeping camera, etc and it looks like the glue is giving. The mirror and plastic covers don't seem to be flush against the glass thus the shaky mirror. I didn't want to take it totally apart for fear of the mirror coming completely off. It looks like they had to take it apart to get the headliner off to fix the dings on the roof and that they just pushed the mirror back into the glue that was there and didn't apply fresh.

So, is this just a matter of them re-applying fresh glue?

Contact SAUTO for a fair and respectable repair. Don't mention that your health provider just prescribed you pain killers.

Permatex makes a little kit for it with the instructions. Even a caveman could do it.

That being said, the mirrors aren't as simple as they used to be. One of our customers took them to a whole different level.

Clean up the glass and the metal piece the mirror slides on. Glue the metal piece to the glass and make sure it's facing the right direction. Then let it sit over night and mount the mirror in the AM

So instead of gluing the mirror back on they used 2 sided tape. Now the glass guy doesn't know if he will be able to bond to the glass so thus might turn into a new windshield

if your vehicle got hail damage before you took delivery I hope you negotiated a lower price, as it affected the value of the vehicle, fixed or not IMHO.

It only effects the value if it is reported to Carfax or whatever. I did all the checking on that.

thats like saying that a car that had been in a major accident only has it's value affected if it was reported to carfax.

Either way, the car is no longer factory. It has (probably significant) body and paintwork done to it, which no matter what they tell you will never last as long as factory.

Bullshit.

Pull the tape off and use the cleaner in the glue pack and then follow the instructions.
