I have a 2018 Lexus Nx 300h, that we bought 2 years ago and had been bringing to the dealership for maintenance. Recently on August 31st, 2020 my right handside mirror exploded with wires hanging out and mirror popped out- luckily I was a block away from my house running about 5mph, or my mirror would have flown in the freeway and may have coz an accident.
Brought to the dealership but they said that I might have hit something since there was this thread like dent- (which could have happen due to the mirror popping out of its case.)
Still does not make sense to have a side mirror exploding. Its like if your car gets even the tiniest dent your mirror might explode.
The dealership claims this is not covered by my warranty due to what they claim something flew or hit the side mirror. I keep on telling them - I was the driver nothing hit the vehicle.
Hopefully this manufacturer take this seriously before any accident happen.
