Right Side (passenger) Outside Mirror Broken.


Recommended Posts

Greetings,

 

Recently, while backing the Edge into the garage, the missus damaged the passenger's side mirror. The mirror twisted forward but did not break off. I have yet to see the vehicle as it is out of town with her on a trip. I know there is damage to the body color-matched painted cover and presume there is damage to the "knuckle" or pivot point for the mirror. I do not believe the glass is damaged.

 

I am looking for input on possible repair of the mirror, or if it will likely have to be replaced.

 

If it is replaced, I am interested in hearing options on mirrors.

 

What other body style mirrors will fit the Edge (Mustang, Fusion, Explorer)?

 

I wish these were auto-dimming mirrors.

Is that option available as OEM or aftermarket? Is it something that I can replace just the mirror glass with the special auto-dimming feature?

 

2013 Edge SEL.

Power Mirrors.

Color-matched front caps in White Platinum Tri-Coat Metallic.

I had a chance to take a look at this. It was mainly the housing.

I was able to remove the mirror, disassemble the mirror and found the bevel retaining screw base to be broken.

I was able to secure it and piece everything back together (except a small missing piece from the bottom near the puddle lamp).

Let's hope this saves me the $300 to $400 for the assembly.
