Good morning, I recently purchased a 2024 Quiettech.
The side mirrors will not stay adjusted (moving around on bumps or in the wind) Does anyone know how to tighten them? |

Underneath. Mine is where the mount connects to the mirror.

Thanks again, it is kind of a weird design having to use tools to adjust the mirror.
Very inconvenient when my wife drives. Oh well |

yep, me too
but it's not a normal nut to tighten the nut pulls down the bolt to snug up the base off the mirror against some rubber. but if you're happy, all good.

First, I would go back to the dealer and have them look at the mirrors, and if that does not work, several of the above comments are suitable. I have had to slightly modify some mirrors that would not hold position the adjustment was either too loose or too tight. I found that taking the mirror apart and installing peel and stick felt pads worked very well.

Its a common issue and simple fix, Most mirrors are 10 or 12 mm nut right under the mirror, A deep socket and 30 seconds of your time and its fixed. Just have to make it snug so you can still adjust. super simple fix.

This is a known issue with these mirrors. If you can't get them to stay in place have them replaced. If you bought it at VGC you can probably have it done under warranty.
