7 Exterior Rearview Mirror problem of the 2005 Honda Pilot

Failure Date: 12/16/2005

On two seperate occassions my 2005 Honda Pilot when backing out of the garage has "lightly" contacted the edge of the garage. Each time the internal mounting mechanism has failed to withstand the impact. The low speed at which the car was traveling did not even impact the wall hard enough to force the mirror to fold in or the glass to break, chip or crack.
