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?

Yeah, I was like WTF? The Manager at Carmax was speechless. They contract out their dent work and he couldn't believe they did that. Oh well, it's all good.

It doesn't get much more hopeless than me when it comes to mechanical stuff, but this ****ing GLUE we're talking about. Glue. You don't understand glue technology?

You might need a new windshield because someone used double sided tape? What?

I don't know Jasonsauto, but stop before you find a way to do damage and get the car to him so he can (1) laugh at you, and (2) save you from yourself.

That's what I thought. He was saying something about the glue he had and the size of the mirror base ...nevertheless he got it fixed and fixed right.

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.

Carfax is not the only game in town. There are other, more comprehensive services that may have it listed.

so you pay X for the car....

it hails the day before you buy the car, they keep the same price and fix it for free...

or

I pay less because of the hail damage and I have to get it fixed myself

net-net it's all about the same in the end....I mean if you want to look at it that way, they reduced the price of the car and I paid to have the hail damage fixed if that makes one feel better about the deal

Most hail damage is repaired without body or paint work involved.

no, I'd say, gee thats great you want $10,000 but I know you just fixed the hail damage, now I'll give you $9,500 because it's not factory paint. I'd make the same adjustment for any vehicle I knew had bodywork.

some is, depends on the severity. I had 2 vehicles with hail damage in 2012 and both required some body work. I have since sold both because someone else can enjoy the rust if a few years.

If it was quality work you wouldn't have to worry about rust

all are worthless because none of the are mandatory. I saw a couple of vehicles that had obvious body work but neither were reported om Carfax. Neither of my vehicles that had hail damage and body work showed up. One of them that had some minor bumper damage repaired did show up.
