My passenger side mirror is flapping back and forth and you can almost lift it out. Anyone know the problem / the fix and how much?

if it's flapping form the door ten pull door panel off and see if bolts are loose, if it's power it's going to be expensive unless you find one at junkyard. check for screws around it see if they can be tightened up
