Side View Mirror Replacement
Drivers often don’t realize how much they rely on both side mirrors until one of them is compromised. When you find yourself with a cracked, broken, or shattered side mirror on the driver’s side or passenger side, you need same-day side view mirror replacement from Lucky Auto Glass in the Detroit Metro area.
Difficulties of Driving with a Damaged Side View Mirror
Operating a vehicle without a driver’s side mirror could cause problems for you with highway patrol officers or inspections, not to mention the serious danger this absence creates for you and other motorists. Without a working side mirror, you will have:
- Difficulty determining if a car is approaching.
- Trouble knowing how far away a car or object is.
- A struggle as to whether it’s safe to change lanes.
- Blindness to certain areas of the road.
Whatever the make and model of your car, truck, SUV, or other type of vehicle, you can get high-quality, same-day side view mirror replacement and get back on the road without worrying about safety or visibility.

Signs It’s Time to Get a Side View Mirror Replacement
Sometimes it isn’t an emergency that finds you needing a new side view mirror. There are problems that can develop over time because of damage that wasn’t addressed or simply from wear and tear. If any of the following are happening with your vehicle, pursue a side view mirror replacement as soon as possible:
- Visibility is foggy, blurry, scratched, or poor in any way.
- The mechanics of the side view mirror are faulty or stuck.
- Condensation builds up regularly on the mirror.
While replacing a side view mirror is a task that many motorists believe they can do themselves, this task is detailed and time-intensive for the inexperienced. It’s often necessary to remove the door trim panel, remove fasteners without breaking them, disconnect electrical cables, and then put everything back together and hope that it works the right way. It’s safer and easier to entrust an expert with this replacement.
Precautions to Protect Side View Mirrors
Some things you simply can’t control when it comes to damaged glass on your vehicle – flying rocks, bad weather, auto accidents, parking lot collisions. But there are some things you can do to protect your side mirrors, like:
- Do not park too close to other vehicles.
- Avoid parking on the street.
- If you have a fold-in mirror feature, use it.
- Be extra cautious pulling into a garage or tight spaces.
- Don’t overuse power controls to adjust the mirrors.
- Be careful when backing out.
