Hi guys,

Just bought a fiesta st 2008 model in white last weekend with technology pack included. The last few times i have locked the cars the mirror on the passengers side folds in but keeps clicking back and forth any ideas whats happened or is is an electrical fault ? Thanks for any answers provided

well the amount i have had changed already under warranty has saved me so much money! if i wouldnt have had the warranty the total would have been near to 1k i reckon! something to think about definately! Did you get yours from ford?

yeah got mine from ford , booking it in next week to get the mirror sorted as its not a major problem just a minor niggle but as warranty has been paid why not get it fixed. Only had the ST nearly 2 weeks now im loving it so much !!!

yeah only annoying thing is that they only do warranty repairs in the week and i will have to have a courtesy car for the day !

no not really it looks great as it is atm and i thought mods on the car invalidated the warranty or am i wrong there ?

Only partially correct. If you make mods and something goes wrong as a result of that modification then that won't be covered under warranty, but anything else going wrong will still be.

I don't know which is worse though. Paying ford to do the mod or repairing any failure caused by the mod!!
