I can't say I have EVER seen a car that doesn't have at least manually folding mirrors. Most will fold in both directions too. Just push a little bit on it, it might take a slight bit of pressure and then it will fold, try to hold it so it doesn't fly back and don't put too much pressure either, it's not supposed to be hard.

Manually, yes. Automatically, no.

My 2016 Acura 2.4 Tech has mirrors that fold using a button on the door as well as manually by hand.

As if the name wasn't a big enough hint, you must be from too! We get those little extras that they just don't get in the states and it makes me think how crappy that must be.

By the way, just a side note. Do not manually push your power folding mirrors, the electirc motors work on a track and pushing them makes them fall off that track (they usually spin around and catch back on to the track when you use the power fold feature again) and there is a possibility you will permanently damage them. It is not cheap to repair them I am willing to bet.

It is nice we get these extra features, and somewhat surprising. However, when you see the U.S. purchase and lease prices that get tossed about on the site, you might say we pay for them! Thanks for the helpful tip. I hardly ever fold my mirrors either way, but will avoid the manual approach! BTW, my forum name might also signal my allegiance as a hockey fan

Exactly! I see these nice little features and think thank you Acura for giving them to us....then I realize that we pay so much more so damn right we deserve them haha.

I have the power fold mirrors on my Sorento, I use them daily, multiple times a day. One of my favorite features when parking. Stops some idiot from walking into it or opening their door on it or something. Are the maple leafs in the playoffs? The oilers are!
