Honda of Midlothian TX (7/22/02):
I own a 1998 Ford Expedition with the Eddie Bauer package. The side mirrors have the blinker arrow inside the mirror. About two years ago, I notifed that the mirros had developed a wavy look. Upon inspecting them, I found that they develop condensation inside of them during hot/humid weather. This condensation has started making the reflective material inside the mirror peel off. When you look at the mirror, you can see the parts inside the mirror along with the reflection. I believe this is a defect and a safety hazard.

I contacted Ford Motor Company and was told that I had to take it to a dealer to be evaluated. I took it to Ennis Ford and was told that yes, this is a defect, but Ford Motor Company will not replace the mirrors after the vehicle is out of warranty. The problem is, this damage was not apparent until the vehicle was about 2 years old. It will cost me over $200.00 per mirror to replace them. I am curious to find out if I am the only one having this problem or have you been notified of this problem by other consumers.

Will cost over $400.00 to replace the defective mirrors. (I am also skeptical that the new mirrors will not do the same thing within 2 years.)
