I think he's pertaining to the car. I had the same issue with my MB when I lived in El Paso. When it was cold (it snowed in EP) the mirrors wouldn't operate because frozen. Also when it snowed it will do the same. When in cold climates I just disable the function. It's a cool function but not very functional

Two ways that I know of one is to let them defrost and the second is not recommended but I pulled them back into position after chipping off the ice or snow lol
