Common Issues

Why Rear View Mirrors Fail and What We Do About It

The rear view mirror attaches to a metal button bonded to the windscreen. Over time, heat and cold can weaken this bond and cause the mirror to fall off. The glass itself can also crack or shatter.

Mirror Fallen Off

The adhesive bond between the mount button and the windscreen has failed. We re-bond the button and reattach the mirror on-site. Adhesive cure time is confirmed before you drive.

Cracked Mirror Glass

Rear view mirror glass cracked or shattered. We replace the mirror unit on-site. Standard and auto-dimming glass options are available depending on the vehicle.

Auto-Dimming Failure

Auto-dimming rear view mirror no longer dims correctly. We can assess and replace auto-dimming units on-site for vehicles where this is factory-fitted. [BUSINESS TO CONFIRM: auto-dimming availability]

Important Safety Note

A Detached Rear View Mirror Is a Safety Issue

Driving without a functioning rear view mirror is illegal in most Australian states and reduces your visibility significantly. If your rear view mirror has fallen off, we recommend addressing it promptly rather than leaving it unattended.

Our mobile service means you do not need to drive an unsafe vehicle to a workshop. We come to wherever your car is parked and complete the reattachment or replacement at your location.

FAQ

Rear View Mirror Replacement Questions

Can you reattach a rear view mirror that has fallen off?

Yes. In most cases where the mount button is still on the windscreen, reattachment is possible on-site. We use an appropriate adhesive and confirm the cure before you drive away. If the mount button has also come off, we rebond the button before reattaching the mirror.

How long does it take for the adhesive to cure?

Cure times vary depending on the adhesive type and ambient temperature. We advise you on the specific cure time for your job before leaving. We do not leave until the bond has reached a safe level for driving. [BUSINESS TO CONFIRM: typical cure times]

Do you replace auto-dimming rear view mirrors?

We assess auto-dimming rear view mirror faults on arrival. Replacement options depend on the vehicle make and model. Contact us with your vehicle details to confirm availability. [BUSINESS TO CONFIRM: auto-dimming mirror service scope]

Is it illegal to drive without a rear view mirror in Australia?

Yes. Australian road rules require vehicles to have a functioning rear view mirror. Driving with a missing or severely damaged rear view mirror may result in a defect notice or fine. We recommend addressing the issue promptly.

Is there a warranty on the rear view mirror fitting?

Yes. Every fitting carries our 3-month workmanship warranty. If the mirror detaches again due to an installation fault within that period, we return and redo it at no cost.
