Abstract
A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head accommodating a mirror reflective element, a support structure configured for attachment at a side of a vehicle, and an adjustment mechanism operable to move the mirror head along the support structure between a retracted position and an extended position. A shutoff device includes a base portion and a movable portion movably disposed at the base portion. With the adjustment mechanism operating to move the mirror head along the support structure, the shutoff device stops movement of the mirror head toward the retracted position responsive to the movable portion engaging a first electrical element at a first end region of the base portion, and stops movement of the mirror head toward the extended position responsive to the movable portion engaging a second electrical element at a second end region of the base portion.
