NHTSA Complaint #10547918 — 2006 LEXUS IS 350

REAR VIEW MIRROR INSIDE VEHICLE IS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT! ACCORDING TO LEXUS FORMS AND DEALERSHIPS, THE MIRROR IS FLAKING FROM THE INSIDE AND IF OUT OF WARRANTY WILL COST OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. I DO UNDERSTAND NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON A VEHICLE, HOWEVER, THIS IS CLEARLY A POORLY MADE PART AND MANY OTHER INDIVIDUALS HAVE HAD THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. I FEEL IT IS A THE DEALERS COST FOR THE PART AND REPLACEMENT WHEN IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE OF THE CAR, REGARDLESS IF THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I DO NOT HAVE EXPENDABLE MONEY TO FIX SUCH A HAZARDOUS ISSUE ON SUCH A "LUXURY VEHICLE," THAT I PAID SO MUCH FOR. I BELIEVE THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FAULTY PART AND REPLACE AT LITTLE TO NO CHARGE! *TR
