Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)SOON AFTER PURCHASING MY USED 1998 TOYOTA COROLLA IN 2001 I HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVER'S SIDE MIRROR...THE MIRROR WOULD NOT STAY IN POSITION INSIDE THE "MIRROR-HOLDER". I WOULD POSITION IT, AND A WEEK LATER IT WOULD BE AT THE WRONG ANGLE. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN AND AGAIN. NOW, THREE YEARS LATER, THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING TO THE PASSENGER'S SIDE MIRROR. I POSITION IT AND A WEEK LATER IT IS STARTING TO TILT DOWN. UNFORTUNATELY THIS TIME THE MIRROR ISN'T COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY SO I JUST KEEP ADJUSTING IT. *JB
