Guys, it would seem that water could very easily get in the arm joint and freeze, just as was posted by H2M&W above. As a matter of fact, he likened it to a frozen lock, just as I did.
Ease up, no. If the arm was engineered improperly, that is poor design. Not a defective part. I undertand it is a pain in the rear.<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Posted by austoak in the thread referenced above:
I had the same problem last year and the Hummer dealership where I bought the H-2 told me that GM is trying to figure out a way to prevent that from happening in the future. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Max, be sure to let us know the differences between your old and new mirrors. I have a feeling they will be the same. Unless, of course, there is some mysterious missing part on your mirror that partsguy can help out with.
partsguy, is there an o-ring or something that would keep the water from getting in there and freezing? Or is the arm engineered in such a way as to prevent it? Just curious.
Now it is snowing outside, so I better go check my windshield wipers. I hate it when they freeze.
