Mirror seems to change position.

[JosephReal]

Mirror seems to be in different position after a few locks and unlocks.
I have owned this 2016 MS 75 for a few days now, and it seems that I've had to reposition the driver side mirror a few times already. Is this a known issue? Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Thanks for the help!

Just lock and unlock, or did you get in and shift to reverse? There are different settings for forward vs reverse, presumably to make parallel parking easier.

If the driving position of the mirror changes, it can be a mirror fold issue. Some mirrors have needed replacement, mine included. That has been my only issue. It wasn’t a big deal, they replace the mirror works but you keep the same cover. A ranger did mine, it didn’t take very long.

I thought I was going nuts, but I think there is a bug.

Is the mirror position changing or is it just that it is not fully retracting to your previously configured position? If the latter one, SC can adjust the tension of the mirror housing. It's a quick fix.

When you adjust your mirror, do you remember to hit "save" on your driver profile? This got me for a week after I got my car.

I had the same problem. Twice. And had the passenger mirror replaced. Twice. Works fine now.

Thanks guys,

I will monitor it for a few more days, to ensure that there is definitely an issue. Then get it serviced. It will be my first service! Kinda looking forward to it!

Thanks again,
Joseph

Yeah, lol. The first thing I did when I sat in the car for the first time was creating my personal Setting.

I had this issue too ... a reboot fixed it.

Thanks, I did a reboot on Monday, and noticed this happening last yesterday. Oh well.

I had a similar problem with the mirror tilt feature (not the fold feature). Every time I took the car out of reverse there was a 9/10 chance that the mirror wouldn't tilt back to regular position. Constantly manually adjusting the mirror was annoying enough I had to disable auto-tilt. When I took it in to the service center they ended up replacing the passenger side mirror and now it works great.

I have a 2019 model 3, and have the same concern. Generally it is close enough so I just drive with where it is (about 2 clicks off). Have you been able to resolve this?

I asked a the service centers and they said its a bug. And thats been like couple months ago.

This has happened to me as well a few times. But I noticed that if you click "Restore" on the profile page, mirrors will correct! This would indicate a software problem; car must know the mirrors are at wrong position but it does not fix them until you click "Restore"?

I think it has happened after reversing, maybe they don't return to "forward going" position as they should.

Edit: Or, perhaps it's a combination of mirror fold + reverse? If you are really quick when entering car and reversing, mirrors are still unfolding while reverse starts, and car might actually still be changing user profile at the same time. Maybe that creates the mixup in mirror position, which then is corrected by "Restore" button..
