Default Do your mirrors shake?

Just trying to get a feel for how widespread this issues is. Im led to believe every 2015 has this issue.

Can be caused by either bumps or just riding at highway speed.

Talking about the regular mirrors, not the towing ones.


Mine shake noticeable going over bumps, and constantly at highway speeds.

Nope. None of my mirrors shake. I drive 30mph to 60+ back and forth to work each day, with lots of torn up city streets. I've replaced OEM mirrors with others from Rockauto before and noticed how the aftermarket ones would shake and distort the image. Haven't noticed anything like that with this truck.

I voted Left because my drivers side did shake originally. Had it replaced and the new one is perfect.

This made me smile. What led you to believe this? I've seen no other posts regarding this, if every 2015 had the issue it would be screamed on this forum.

If you are thinking of a new career, don't consider Market Research, they require statistically valid surveys.

My Dealership said that the engineering hotline told them this may be a "characteristic of the vehicle", since they replaced it once for me, and the new one was worse.

I personally don't believe this is wide spread, but the dealership is trying to tell me this is the way the 2015s are. That's why I made the poll

My super duty mirrors shake when I spool to 30psi and unleash 1000lb ft of torque

My mirrors didn't shake until I took it to the car wash for the first time. I took it to the car wash to see if the panoramic roof would leak, which it didn't but it does when it rains. As I drove away, at 30mph, I noticed both mirrors shaking like crazy. I can now easily push them with one finger.

UPDATE:
I decided to push the power folding mirror button ant the mirrors didn't fold. Instead it made two loud clicks. I hit the button again and they folded in, then out again.
Guess what? No vibration now.

Yeah, if they get bumped, retract them in and back out and it'll reset them to where they should be.
No shaking on mine, but I do have the towing mirrors.
