Default Side mirror nauseating

Ever since I picked up my 08(a week ago) I've noticed I have trouble looking in the drivers side mirror. It's like looking into a fun house, no matter how I adjust it it just makes me sick. The passenger side mirror is fine. I've never driven a vehicle that had this issue. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes. I had the same problem. I had my left side mirror replaced, but the new one is the same. I kind of got used to it, but I will report it the dealer during my next service visit. It must be a bad batch of mirrors and having it replaced again it will not do anything unless Mitsu stops using this batch. Other people have reported the same issue.

Get oversized blind spot mirrors, that helped me a lot.

The regular side mirrors are enough, but they are defective and this is the OP's concern.

Is it moving or vibrating? Or is it just the actual mirror that is distorbing your view and making you dizy?

I think he just means where everything looks "squished" The image is stretched from left to left and shrunk from top to bottom. I find it hard to tell what make of vehicle is behind me now.

My mirror looks ok. Probably a bad batch. But since it's a physical problem, I guess it will be easily replaced if you show it to the dealer.

Yeah, its a physical thing. Looks like a horror house mirror. Will mention it on my first visit.

Is there a Honda behind you? That usually makes me pretty sick...
