rear view mirror

To sort of add on to another discussion... My car is also almost 2 years old, and I have had no problems with it. Of course, I did have an issue with the tires several months ago, but am over that now. I just did not expect the run-flats to wear so quickly. I do think it drives better everyday. Also, I have avoided more accidents than I care to remember, and know that is due 100% to this fine car.
Anyway, I am driving home from work today and the little plastic thing covering the rain sensor on the back of the rear view mirror came off. I was in the middle of a turn, not going real fast and if some one would have been in the passenger seat it would have hit them square in the head. Scared me to death. It took forever, but I finally got it snapped back into place. It did not look broken, just like it came appart. I hope it does not happen again.
Has this happened to anyone else?
