Thought I would pass word along that they are releasing a recall for the 3 screws that come loose in the mirrors. Have come loose on my left mirror!
SUBJECT: SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN: SK, GLASS IN THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS BECOMING LOOSE.
MODEL(S): SX-4 (RW420)
YEAR: 2007~2010
AFFECTED VEHICLES:
2007 JS2YB413575112258 ONLY
2008~2009 ALL
2010 CERTAIN MODELS
IN ALL CASES PLEASE CHECK VEHICLE HISTORY ON
SUZUKICONNECT.COM TO CONFIRM THAT VEHICLE IS INCLUDED IN
RECALL CAMPAIGN AND THE CAMPAIGN SERVICE HAS NOT BEEN
PERFORMED
CONDITION: The head portion of the outside mirror(s) may work loose while driving or when opening and closing the front door(s).
CAUSE: Due to the absence of a pre-coated adhesive, known as thread lock on the three (3) mounting screws on the outside rear view mirror base, the screws may loosen and cause vibration of the mirror itself resulting in decreased visibility performance and increasing the risk of a crash.
CORRECTION: DO NOT replace the Mirror assembly! Please remove the three screws that attach the head portion of each mirror, and replace them with the countermeasure parts.
The replacement parts are just different screws with thread lock already on them.
