I don't have the blind spot option on my '15 GLA, I wish I did.
I almost hit a car to my left when changing lanes last week. I rely on my mirrors, but I can't get the driver's mirror to adjust so that I can see the critical spot from 6 to 25 feet behind the mirror and 8 to 15 feet to my left.
No matter how I try, I can always see my vehicle in the mirror. I can turn it in such that I can practically peer into the back seat window but I can't adjust it to show me where danger lies. The problem seems to be in the way that the assembly is mounted to the vehicle. The mirror does turn a lot relative to the housing, but the housing is pointed much to close to the vehicle.
I have always been able to make this adjustment in any vehicle that I've driven (although I do note that most folks seem to want to see their own car in the mirror, I do not).
Has anyone else had this adjustment problem? Does anyone know if the mirror can be adjusted to fix this?
Thanks,
