I have my 2nd 2019 CX-5 GTR going on 2 years. The rear view mirror has always wiggled slightly from day one, just enough to be annoying. I just had my vehicle in for it's annual oil/filter/rotate/state inspection (I only drive around maybe 3k miles/year). Anyway, I asked them to adjust the mirror while it was there. They told me the mirror couldn't be tightened & ordered me a new one under warranty.
While I'm waiting for the replacement to arrive, like most of us on this forum, I looked up what said replacement lists for. The replacement lists for $568.62 US which is absolutely insane IMO. The accessory frameless mirror which comes standard on the Signature model lists for $325 if added to the GTR in Mazda's "Build Your Own" on their website or $269.95 (Mazda list price) if purchased stand alone. I asked the parts guy at my dealer & he said he sees the same thing & has no idea why there is such a price difference much less why the original one costs that much.
It's a moot point to me since Mazda is replacing mine under warranty, BUT REALLY!!! How can a mirror possibly cost that much?
