So I'm driving home tonight and all of a sudden CRACK, my rear-view mirror falls down and starts dangling by the wires. I'm talking about the one inside, normally attached to the windshield. I had my windshield replaced a couple months ago and I'm guessing the guy who replaced it didn't attach the mirror on securely enough. Although I was driving alone, I still managed to say "FAIL" out loud when it happened.

But for us older dudes the word "fail" doesnt mean much if anything...
We would resort to the old traditional "F**K!!" if a similar thing happened.
Same thing happened to my ex gf, cept she had a sonata lol. My last cars rearview mirror just got loose and would move to the point of being useless soon as first bass hit. 850rms in bandpass box was too much lol.
this happened to me a little while ago... i was in traffic and to avoid getting pissed i cranked up my stereo with the windows up... same thing happened that you described... i heard a "crack" then it dangled... only i yelled "WTF!!" luckily i was right infront of gwinnett place nissan pulled and asked how much he replied $600... i laughed in his face and drove off.... 10w7 FTL

I just called my insurance company - they transferred me to the glass company that did my windshield replacement back in September. They are going to warranty their work and replace my entire windshield today. Pretty good customer service if you ask me...
