    Anyone having the windshield washer fluid collecting on the mirrors when you use it? Is there a fix we can get done at the yard for it? Also,mirror looks all warped.This is on a 2013 .Any input is appreciated.Hopefully when I upgrade in a few thousand miles,the baby freightshaker won't have the same problems...

    A fix? No. A git around? If you're under about 10 MPH, the mirrors get much less spray.

    You just now noticing it?

    design flaw. I always have a few paper towels handy. Do the one arm out the window wipe down of the mirror if it gets bad.

    Heard there was some wind wing you put on the mirror. Never been able to find it though.

    Otherwise, never been able to figure it out. With the sprayer nozzles on the arm, you are spraying into the wind when it goes up to the top.

    I think Prime would like the fuel mileage too much if we did that. Probably be a new company requirement. lol
