Side mirror broke off

I had to do some work on the driver's side interior as I was trying to swing the side mirror in - CRACK. The side mirror drooped and powder came out. I lightly moved it to see what was wrong and it came off in my hand. As I looked inside, the metal inside the mirror was corroded. If I had hit anything or if there was any kind of impact, I would expect the plastic housing to be damaged, but alas - it is all good.

Anyone ever hear of this happening? This is a serious WTF.:beerme:

(note: I even did the mirror drain drill mod, so liquid should not be accumulating in the mirror housing).

Stopped by the deal - price with tax for a replacement - $271. That's for a manual mirror with no heat. OUCH! Found one on Amazon for $45 that got great reviews. I did check out Q*Tech, XT and some other supporting vendors, but for something this simple I didn't mind an alternative.
