“1) The rearview mirror detached from the windshield and a piece of the glass came off with it leaving a small hole. 2) I was left without a rearview mirror. For the last 2 years the mirrow was being held up by the ADAS cover, but now the glass is cracking. 3) This incident took place 6 months after I bought the car. I took it to the Riverside dealership where I had purchased my car, the very next day and Frank, the manager accused me of breaking the mirrow. …”
