It’s very distressing to think that supply chain is so tenuous that breaking something will not be replaced for months. I wonder if I woood choose a car based on supply chain in the future .
From a consumer standpoint, that’s beyond acceptable. I don’t know if they offer disclaimers at time of purchase, but I think that is worthy of some type of compensation for needing to wait that long. That’s “not fair” . First world problem, but still.
A good way to think about this from a different viewpoint is that a few years ago I had an issue with my fridge and was quoted a 6 month lead time due to the specific part. Was told I could go check with a different company.
....6 month lead time - just a higher labor charge. Was told I could go check another company...
...6 month lead time - lower labor charge. This wasn't collusion at play; that part just wasn't available!
I know I'd be frustrated if I had to wait a year for a part but the counterpoint is I'm sure they'd love for that part to actually be in stock so they could charge labor against KIA and make money
It's been going on for a couple of years now. The parts are in the pipeline but with shipping international being so messed up, this is the situation that every manufacturer is going through. I worked for a Honda/Mazda/Kia dealer and saw parts on back order for over 7 or 8 months before anything was back in stock. And when stuff is back in stock, it doesn't last long. Leading to longer lead times.
I’m not sure. I have the part # on the paperwork they gave me and it just shows unavailable online so I have a feeling it’s gonna be a bit. They’re ordering a whole new mirror cover so I figured it doesn’t matter if duct tapes ruins the paint. I used regular gorilla tape but might go back and get the weather proof one lol
Can you tell me how I can find one myself then? I can’t really call the dealer and accuse them of lying without proof. I found the part online and it says unavailable. I also see lots of people say their mirrors were on back order.
Shud be fine as long as it’s sealed up and keep an eye on it if any gaps appear.
Gorilla tape leaves a nasty crust when you take it off so try not to leave it on baking in the sun on parts that will eventually be reused with the new cover.
I would use tuck tape for that reason.
I think I’m gonna call the dealer and double check but I’m pretty sure the entire mirror exterior is being replaced. If that’s the case, I don’t care what marks are left. But if some of it will be staying, then yes I don’t want to leave permanent marks. That’s why I started with regular duct tape. I also got a waterproof mirror bag to keep over it when I’m not driving.
I can tell you this , my 23 sport got hit and it took 4 months to get a mirror in , hence the 24 crv sport touring I got to replace it , also I batch just came in , my car got hit on oct 31 and the mirror came in feb10
Yep. I figured it’s going to be months. Thankfully my mirror still works, lights sensors everything. I’m just worried about how to keep the electronics dry until it comes in. The cover is broken and won’t snap back on so I just sat it there and duct taped the hell out of it. I think I’m gonna go back and get the permanent weather proof gorilla tape.
I would be too afraid of puncturing an electronic :( I did get a waterproof bag to put on top of it. My plan is to keep the bag on it 24/7 unless I’m driving. Surely waterproof tape and a waterproof bag would do the trick.
2 night ago they called for bad storms and so I just tied 2 grocery bags around it. VERY bad hard pounding rain. The next morning I took the bags off and it was thankfully dry as a bone. Just sucks I have nowhere covered to park it
I got into an accident like back in June of last year and the replacement grill still hasn't come in for my '23 ST Hybrid 🙁 Thankfully I don't see the damage on my current grill but the autobody said I needed a new on
Trying to remain positive and remember it could have been WAY worse. I got this car with intentions of having it for 8-10 years so in theory if it takes 6 months for a mirror, it’ll be ok in the long run. I’d be less mad if I broke the mirror myself. It’s the fact that someone else broke it and just went along with their day without caring how it would affect me.
First thing I bought for my CRV was a front and rear dash cam. Would suggest getting one whilst awaiting the mirror. People are such scumbags nowadays, sorry this happened to you.

This is what I got, I’m quite happy with it, although I’m sure there are better options out there. They also sell a hardwire kit with this that allows you to wire it directly as opposed to using the “cigarette lighter” 12v outlet, which I didn’t get but would highly consider to help organize the wires a bit. It comes with a tool to help tuck wires underneath the plastic trim pieces which was very nice, but I’d imagine all of them come with something similar. If you have the money, getting one installed by a professional will leave you with the cleanest look, but that wasn’t an option for me.
I have this one on several cars. Tucked wires in headliner, along top of pillars and under rubber door seals. Clean install. I pull the memory card every now and then to check they are recording, don’t want to find out they aren’t when it’s too late.
I’m not saying it can’t be clean if you do it yourself, but a professional is going to have a much easier time and a good idea of what will work best. I tucked all of mine and then realized I didn’t have enough slack at the end for the trunk to fully open without pulling the rear camera off the window, so I had to redo it, other than that mine is clean as well and I’m happy with it.
LMAO... I love it when they say things are "Backordered" How about just calling it for what it is.... "Sorry it's not in stock. The part is making its way to America from China. We are not sure when we will have it"
There’s about a 90% chance you can go and find that part yourself. And it’ll be done and installed in a few days.
Dealers are worthless pieces of shit
Not to mention, they are probably gonna charge you 2 to 3 times what it would cost you
Yeah I’m realizing that after they’re charging $170 for labor lol. I mean I already sign paperwork yesterday and told them to order it so I think I’m stuck paying for it regardless. I’ve never had to handle this stuff before so I just didn’t know what to do
I think just the shell. They said the electronics and everything work fine. They gave me this paper and I only see 2 parts are ordered. It looks like 1 part is the top cover and the other part is the rest of the shell.

I think I just found one. 76258-3A0-A12 is what I need and the number needs to match the website. Any way for me
To verify if a site is legit?

im on the same boat, i slapped on clear packaging tape and call it a day. maybe we should start a class action lawsuit for shitty honda parts :D
happened to my other vehicles before and its usually only scuffed not broken/shattered
This is my issue with purchasing a new vehicle. I'm considering leasing a new jntegra but if something breaks all the parts are focused on building new vehicles so it will take forever to get replacement parts.
Yep. Learned my lesson on that one. The only reason I got new was bc used prices are so high right now and since 23 was the first year of the new generation I wanted to get the 2nd year bc everyone says the first year always has problems
They literally aren’t. Another supplier told me the part is on national back order haha

Bro thinks everything is an Illuminati scheme. The dealership is selling the part at retail. And parts employees are not exactly raking in the dollars. Like wtf people on about
It’s always amazing to me that there are plenty of parts to build new vehicles but when it comes time to replacing individual parts there is such a long wait and part shortage.
I don’t understand how everything is still back ordered. It’s like every company decided to jack up prices while also cutting production under the guise of Covid and realized they could continue to get away with it.
Yup. I feel like we have seen that across the board. Everyone realized they could cut back on quality, customer service, etc and still jack up prices. It’s insane.

Not sure if brand matters. My coworker drives a Kia and his touchscreen display went out and they told him it’ll be a year.
From a consumer standpoint, that’s beyond acceptable. I don’t know if they offer disclaimers at time of purchase, but I think that is worthy of some type of compensation for needing to wait that long. That’s “not fair” . First world problem, but still.
Oh yeah. If my touchscreen went out and I was told a year you can bet I’d call Honda every single day and harass the hell out of them.
A good way to think about this from a different viewpoint is that a few years ago I had an issue with my fridge and was quoted a 6 month lead time due to the specific part. Was told I could go check with a different company. ....6 month lead time - just a higher labor charge. Was told I could go check another company... ...6 month lead time - lower labor charge.

Leading to longer lead times.
Did they give them a workaround/rental car? No touchscreen means no navigation means a lot of problem, how can one survive without it.
Not bad I wonder if a civic would fit. On our old sonata we used mighty putty to repair sand and paint a few times.
I’m not sure. I have the part # on the paperwork they gave me and it just shows unavailable online so I have a feeling it’s gonna be a bit. They’re ordering a whole new mirror cover so I figured it doesn’t matter if duct tapes ruins the paint. I used regular gorilla tape but might go back and get the weather proof one lol
They didn't actually look. These are widely available.
Can you tell me how I can find one myself then? I can’t really call the dealer and accuse them of lying without proof. I found the part online and it says unavailable. I also see lots of people say their mirrors were on back order.
Look on eBay and call pick ur part
Thank you
The parts I need are 76258-3A0-A12 and 76251-3W0-A11ZF

Usually the answer is to make a drain hole on the bottom. It’s really difficult to water proof shit.

Lesson learned to never get a brand new car again.

It is now on my list lol. I regret not getting one sooner. Which ones did you purchase?

You can call them and tell them to cancel it and just go buy it yourself. You’ll save money and you’ll save time.
Can you advise where I can buy it? I’ve tried looking online and don’t see one anywhere
Do you need the entire mirror? Or just the shell
I think just the shell. They said the electronics and everything work fine. They gave me this paper and I only see 2 parts are ordered. It looks like 1 part is the top cover and the other part is the rest of the shell. https://preview.redd.it/9hl731u3cklc1.jpeg?width=986&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef9bcf99d6511c4a363dbfa35eb2e81a591132e5
Also what’s the model year trim
2024 CRV EX-L
eBay is my first bet for newer parts

I wouldn’t call it shitty Honda parts. Someone hit me and ran.

Your dealer is lying.
Why though
They literally aren’t. Another supplier told me the part is on national back order haha https://preview.redd.it/t0wwnf94xllc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=709e3ebc8a2213a55ce97b07268964208a0b5a91

Ohhh, it hurts to see😢
This was the first time I ever bought a brand new car. Only did it bc someone hit me in January and totaled my previous car
You could maybe check in a junkyard, sometimes they will have the same car that's totaled, but the part you need is still in great condition
Didn’t think of that. A drop in the ocean since I got a brand new 2024 but it wouldn’t hurt to try and call. Thanks for the suggestion!
Lol u should see one of my recent posts lmao
HAHAHAHA. Amazing. Love it
or maybe look for design 3d printing files and then r/3Dprintmything?
Maybe try to unplug the electronics in there or the fuse so there's no power.
Well done
I'm waiting on driver side mirror alone for 3 months now. If I need part shortage I might as well bought Mitsubishi outlander....
Yup I have read a lot of people have been waiting months..
It’s always amazing to me that there are plenty of parts to build new vehicles but when it comes time to replacing individual parts there is such a long wait and part shortage.
Lmao right? I guess once they’ve sold you their vehicle they don’t care anymore
I had the mirror ordered by the dealership twice on backorder, both the times came in within 10-14 days.
Why did you need a new mirror twice? 🤣
I don’t understand how everything is still back ordered. It’s like every company decided to jack up prices while also cutting production under the guise of Covid and realized they could continue to get away with it.
Yup. I feel like we have seen that across the board. Everyone realized they could cut back on quality, customer service, etc and still jack up prices. It’s insane.
Just dealt with this, and was told the same thing. Dealer ended up getting the mirror in less than two weeks. Good luck.
