Description of the problem	I was driving on 101 south from santa rosa towards san francisco and when in the novato area the rearview mirror came off dangling from the headliner by the wiring harness right on my face. The dangling rearview mirror blocked my view of the road and this big distraction nearly caused an accident. This is clearly a safety issue, rearview mirrors should not just randomly fall off. I strongly believe that volkswagen ought to have a recall for this defective mirror and perform a repair at vw's expense. My aaa certified mechanic quoted me in excess of $700. 00 to re-glue the rearview mirror to the windshield.
