Consumer Description

THE REAR VIEW MIRROR HAS BECOME UNUSABLE- MIRROR HAS BLACK SCRATCHES ALL OVER ON THE INSIDE & KEEPS GETTING WORSE. DO A GOOGLE SEARCH & YOU'LL FIND 100S OF COMPLAINTS ON FORUMS & CHATS. IT'S 1500 BUX TO GET THIS REPLACED & IT'S NOT A USERS FAULT! LEXUS HAS FULLY AWARE OF THIS FOR YEARS & NEVER DID A RECALL. I CAN'T SEE FROM THIS MIRROR AT ALL & DEF. NOT AT NIGHT. IF I GET IN A WRECK, IT WILL BE 100% ON LEXUS!
