there should be a torx screw on the mount on the windshield, make sure it's tight, otherwise the swivel may be going bad due to older age, you may want to look for a new mirror

It's just the swivel, when the bass hits it decides to point downward.

I'm surprised theirs not a aftermarket piece to help with it. I'm tempted to dump some soda on it, or play with some springs or something.
