What cars are vurnable?

How about a lot of Fords which have inferior speed control disablement switches that catch on fire?

Two ideas.
1.  There should be some software settings to alter the sensitivity and
rate of change for that auto dimming mirror.

2.  Check with Nissan to see if that car or a lesser model came with a
manual dim mirror.  Before swapping it out determine if removing the
mirror will somehow foul up one of the cars computers.  It shouldn't,
but ask any way to be safe.

A few years ago there was only one manufacturer of these electrochromic
mirrors, and that may still be the case, so they probably all work the
same.  Verify with your dealer that it is working at all, and that you
know how to use the controls properly.  They simply do not work as well
as manual mirrors.  You'll get used to it, or it will drive you nuts.

That's a shame.

Are they made in America or something?

Here here! Sometimes new technology just ain't worth the bother, and
thesauto mirros are the perfect example. I've experienced auto-dimming
mirrors in Nissans and Mercedez Benzes. Hated them both. Give me a
manual mirror any day.

$I have a 05 Maxima SE, and I am very unhappy with the
$performance of the autodimming rearview mirror. It often
$fails to detect glare, especially when it is relatively
$bright outside. Even at night I am sometimes blinded by
$vehicles behind me because the damn thing fails to oppacify
$for some unknown reason.

  Hmm, wanna trade?  The auto-dimming mirrors in my Audi A4 are too aggressive,
getting dark even before the sun sets and often getting so dark that the only parts
of other cars which are visible are their lights.  At least that ought to be easy
to fix; some black ink on the rear-facing sensor ought to reduce its sensitivity
to light (though I've never gotten around to trying it).

  Actually, I wish a lot of these auto-whatever features would go away.  They're
designed for people who are too lazy or stupid to figure it out themselves, and
probably too dumb to be allowed to drive.  I never found it difficult to flip the
little switch on the rear view mirror on my previous cars.  Nor have I ever found
it difficult to turn on the wipers when it rains or turn my headlights on when it's
dark.
