Driver Side Mirror
Not a big hairy deal but has any body noticed the distortion? Images look stretched. They actually make the cars behind us look better

My 2011 is like that too. Very obvious if you compare the image to that of the rear view mirror. Is everyone's like that? or are we the lucky few?

Mine does that too. All vehicles behind looks wider in the drivers side mirror. I thought that it sort of a light version of convex mirror to fit more in the view. Mybe I'm wrong though : )

Mike, I wouldn't admit this if I were you. LOL

I've never noticed the mirror image either. I guess I'll be looking on the way home. I hope I don't rear end anyone. LOL

Reminds me of the old Garry Shandling joke about having a mirror over the bed that reads "objects in mirror are larger than they appear"
