Default Came out to see this is it normal?




after I got out of work Yesterday I noticed my mirror was pushed in and does not look to be a normal position I believe and was like wtf why did some pos do this. Is this normal for the mirror to turn all the way like this? because if am not mistaken my passenger side will not go any farther than the limit let me know thanks

Did you try moving back to its original position without anything feeling loose inside the mirror? I know Honda side mirrors can fold out like that, not sure about Lexus

The side mirrors are made to go either forward or backward. It shouldn't be a problem to just push it back into place. I think even the power folding mirrors can be pushed without damage.

Didn't know they could fold this way. If there is no damage visible just move it back into place.

I accidentally pushed the passenger side mirror back like this on my 2017 GS350 with power fold-in windows. I had a momentary panic until I pushed it back to its normal position. As far as I can tell, nothing was damaged and everything works as normal.

Yep, that's how they're supposed to fold backwards.

It was done intentionally, I got a reply back. Apparently I was parked too far away from the curb. Some racist did it said he doesn't like Indians. as for the mirror looks like it snapped if the pics are too boring I'll take them down. Thanks this section always does it's best to kick other members...I'll just stay on other parts of CL

I thought the same thing about 6 very similar pictures. It's only said in jest. No reason to get upset.

Why exactly would these be able to turn this way? I've never had a car that let the mirrors turn this way, pretty strange to me.
