Cracked or broken
If your rearview mirror has severe cracks, broken hinges, or won’t adjust, it may need to be replaced. Some small cracks may not be a big deal and you won’t need to replace it unless it’s extremely distracting. But a severe crack can distort your vision, which is a good reason to replace it.
Stained or won’t clean
The glass on your rearview mirror can get stained by many things. Maybe you used a substance that isn’t designed to clean mirrors to clean it, or maybe some stubborn mold has crawled onto your mirror and can’t be removed. Sometimes, constant exposure to sunlight can permanently discolor your mirror. Regardless of how it happens, it can be extremely distracting and make it difficult to see clearly. In this case, you should consider booking an appointment with our mobile mechanics before an accident occurs.
Light dimming feature not working
Some modern cars have a rearview mirror feature that dims the reflection. This is very useful when driving at night and can make the driving experience more comfortable if the car behind you has very bright headlights. If this feature stops working on your car, you should replace your rearview mirror. Not all cars have this feature, so if you don’t use it often, you might not notice if it’s malfunctioning. But if you have this feature, you should fix it to improve your driving experience.
Lost
Of course, if your side mirror is completely disconnected or missing, you should install a new one immediately. You might think you don’t need it because your side mirrors work fine, but in order to get a panoramic view around the car, you need all three mirrors.
