Folding Mirrors Have Mind of Their Own!

Hi All,
I have my settings configured so that when I lock the vehicle, the side mirrors fold in. Lately it has been not working... When I check the settings, everything is as it should be and I need to deselect the option in command and then reselect to get it working again.
It will function properly for a few weeks and then stops working again. Not a huge issue but definitely a nuisance. Anyone else experience this or have a fix? I'll have the dealer look at it on the next visit for sure.

Same here. The profile function seems to forget elements from time to time. I re enter them. I think the profile function has some quirks that are not appearent.

This might sound like a dumb question but are you sure the correct profile (Profile 1 for example) is being loaded? My wife knows how to switch profiles and sometimes I don't notice until I look at the number on the screen.

Mike, good question. But no, my profile has the progressive dash, and hers has the traditional so it is readily apparent which one is on. There is a warning that some profile elements register only under certain circumstances. That might be it.
