Car wash damage

[ronniebell]

Happened at my local car wash. I've had my Telluride washed there probably 20 times, but this time it cracked the black trip around the side mirror as well as some of the clear plastic. What's the best way get this repaired? I plan to sell my Telluride in the next 6 months.

DYI may be your least expensive repair option. Check out the part #'s required here then search for them as used parts on Ebay, etc. MIRROR-OUTSIDE REAR VIEW. 2021 Kia Telluride 3.8L AT 4WD S | Kia USA

At minimum, you'll most likely need the mirror housing & lamp cover. Also worth reaching out to the car wash owner / management to see if they'll explore covering the damage. Worth a try.

Going forward..... avoid any car wash with brushes, etc. that come in contact with your vehicle. No bueno.

Enjoy the ride new mirror.

Even though they give a disclaimer, provided you make them aware immediately, they will likely take care of it.
