Garage door opener
The "Homelink" door opener on my mirror appears to have a problem. For a long time, the rubber button would not always come back out fully after depressing it. I would press it a little (not enough to activate again)and it would come out.
Since replacing it would probably involve all the apparatus connected to the mirror, wasn't sure I wanted to get involved in all that.
However, it now appears that it may be staying in and sending a signal to open the door after I have driven down the driveway.
Anybody know if there is a problem with these devices? Any bulletins out there? My car has a build date of Oct. 2009.
Personally the hard plastic buttons on Asian cars I had worked much better than these rubber ones.
Thanks.

I would get it replaced. all those apparatus you refer to are a connector or two. It must have been pressed in very hard at some point. Just get it replaced.
