Tightening of Side View Mirror
Tightening of Side View Mirror
Hi -
About two years ago I had an issue with my driver's side view mirror that resulted in it being "loose" enough so objects looked quite blurry & shaky when driving down the highway or anything but a perfectly smooth road. When I was at the dealer for some other maintenance I had them tighten the mirror and the issue went away (apparently it was trivial enough for them to not bill me for it, IIRC).
Anyway, I think the problem is coming back, and I believe it's caused by me recently frequently folding the mirror when parking in tight spots. After maybe a dozen folds & unfolds objects start to look shaky in the side view mirror.
Has anyone run into this problem before? If so, is there a way of me tightening the mirror myself without having to take in the car for service? I'm hoping that I can take the bottom off the mirror and just tighten a screw, or something.
Thanks!
