Consumer Description

I PARKED THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY AND THE PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR STARTED CLICKING. THE MIRROR WAS ATTEMPTING TO ROTATE TO THE EXTREME CAR SIDE OF THE MIRROR. USING THE REMOTE MIRROR CONTROL HAD NO EFFECT.THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND THE MIRROR MOTOR CONTINUED TO TRY TO MOVE THE MIRROR PAST THE LIMIT. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES, THE CLICKING STOPPED AND THERE WAS AN ODOR OF PLASTIC BURNING. AFTER THE CLICKING STOPPED, NEITHER MIRROR MOVED. THE LOCAL MECHANIC SAID THE WIRING TO THE MOTOR HAD BURNED AND SHORTED THE MECHANISM. I WAS LUCKY THAT THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE INTERIOR OF THE DOOR. HAS THIS MALFUNCTION BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE TRAILBLAZERS? *TR
