DESCRIPTION

The door mirror is not adjustable (uncontrollable) using the inside door control lever. This is due to the internal O-ring of the mirror pivot breaking, causing the pivot to seize and allowing the mirror adjustment wires to become loose. A modified part is available which has protective grease added to the O-ring to prevent breakage. Customers complaining of this subject should have their vehicle inspected, and if necessary, repaired according to this bulletin.
