“The contact owns a 2008 Kawasaki versys KL650E. While driving 40 MPH or more, the wind pushes the left and right exterior mirrors (specifically the right mirror) towards him. The contact cannot see anyone in the rear. He attempted to adjust the mirror while driving, but nearly crashed. The vehicle also made a popping sound when the gears were switched. He was initially informed that a chain was loose. The dealer tightened the chain, but the failure still persists. When the vehicle was taken back to the dealer, they stated that the failure was normal. …”
