Mirrors are possessed!

Did you reboot both displays? That kind of behaviour is typically fixed by rebooting.

It seems lately that my side rear view mirrors are possessed! When I put the car into reverse the mirrors may or may not point down. Usually they do. When I put the car back into drive, however, often either the left or right mirror does not return to the proper position forcing me to manually do it (and re-save the position in the profile). I have tried re-saving the profiles for reverse and drive and still the problem persist. It can be especially dangerous at night where it can be difficult to tell that the mirror is in the wrong position when driving.

Reverse mirror auto tilting has been problematic for me, I set up everything as desired & save in my profile & it works fine for about a month then simply stops tilting, I have gone thru this at least 3 times over the last 20 months with tons of reboots & all the new firmwares. Nothing is ever found looking at the logs when there has been more series issues so i won't bother bringing this up with Tesla, I guess the next time I am bored i will try again.

My passenger (your driver) side was replaced last week and still not working well. The mirror does not extend on a regular basis, it folds fine and random on extend.

I had the same reversing problem early on. I reprogrammed and saved the settings a couple of time right in a row and it has been fine since.

You guys are doing it all wrong! I had a very similar problem where it just stopped working a few months in, nothing major but kind of annoying. I complained at the service center and they said everything looked good from a firmware and hardware standpoint. As I was getting ready to leave and chatting with the service tech I mentioned it again, so we went through the process: start car, put in Reverse, adjust mirrors, click save, switch back to drive and try it out, no luck despite doing it at least 5 times. Then it suddenly dawned on us to not hit save, just put it in reverse and adjust, then switch back to drive mode. Sure enough we did that and they were working again! Remembering back to the first time walk through, those were the instructions they gave, but the Save button is tempting to click and from a UI standpoint it would make more sense, but it doesn’t work, go figure.

Went thru the process again this past Monday, readjusted the mirrors while in reverse, pressed saved & it worked fine for a couple of days...today it no longer points down even after a reboot. I have added "Mirrors Possessed" to my list of things that need to be fixed at my next servicing, I doubt this will be resolved.

I've had the same problem just in the past week (occurred 3 times, left mirror only not returning to normal position after coming out of reverse). Never had the problem before. It seems readily solved by just pressing my profile name, but very annoying.

I had a similar problem when I first got my car, my driver side mirror would suddenly change position, seemingly randomly.

I took it to service, they replaced the mirror and its all fine now.

You may have a hardware problem.
