Description of the problem	I own a 2004 bmw 325i and my rearview mirror with an autodimming feature leaked onto my center console and front passenger seat. There was no prior indication of mirror failure before i noticed the broken mirror and spots on the seat and console. The fluid actually bubbled up and ate through my console and cup holders and left permanent stains on the seat. The dealer is well aware of the problem and so is magna donnelly as it has happened to numerous cars as can be seen my talking to bmw, acura, magna donnelly and internet forums. We spoke both to the local bmw dealer and bmw corporate and magna donnelly and while they acknowledge that my mirror leaked and that they are aware of the problem, it was out of warranty and they would do nothing to fix it. I had to pay to replace the mirror because my car is not driveable without it, however, they also indicated i had no choice but to replace it with an identical mirror which may leak in the future.
