Anyone knows if this is a common issue? this is annoying me since it affects my driving . the one on the passenger side is okay tho :mad:
 
By blurry do you mean distortion? The curvature of RAV4's mirrors can sometimes give that look.. or check if it's a wide view mirror?

Also try looking at a steady object with a straight line (like a drawing on a paper would do) through the mirror and observe with that?

But best to take it back to the dealer.. it could be a safety concern!
 
You know, sometimes replacement mirrors can be a bit picky. If it's not an exact match, like if it needs to be heated or auto-dimming, there could be some distortion or quirks. Did the installer double-check that it's the right type and that it's aligned correctly?

If this issue keeps popping up, it might be a good idea to have a professional take a look for any installation or manufacturing faults. And how bad is that blur, anyway? Is it something that makes you uneasy while driving? Your safety matters
