    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Electric Mirror issues?

Has anyone run into issues with the function of their electric mirrors? My passenger mirror works great some days (folds in and out) and then other days not at all. Wondering if this is an isolated thing or if others have experienced it?? (I can just picture it working flawlessly while I’m trying to explaining the issue to the dealership..)
 
The motor in my driver side mirror went out and stopped working. Took it to the dealership and they had to order a new one. Taking it in tomorrow to get it replaced.

Did it go 100% dead all at once? Or did you have a limbo period where it worked sometimes and not at others?
Kinda concerning.. only have at it for 6 months.

Have you taken it to the dealer to get checked?

I've heard stories before of folks accidentally bumping the mirrors and then manually folding them back by hand; obviously not good for the motor.

No — haven’t taken it in yet—will make an appointment. No bumps or manual folding.

Was just curious to hear from others — as my fear was that I wouldn’t be able to reciprocate the issue on the spot at the dealer (e.g. it’s working fine right now)

Out of the blue the mirror would fold in about a quarter of the way and I could hear the motor keep running for about 5 seconds. Like it wasn't catching. I've only had mine a month an a half.
 
Both of my mirrors have went out have had the truck since nov 2020 it’s a 2021 ex
