Side Mirror Doesn't Lower when in REVERSE GEAR

Well, I'm biting the bugs again. This time the passenger side mirror doesn't automagically tilt down when I drop the shifter into REVERSE. I recall someone having the same problem but that was about 9 months ago.

Any one else having this bug? I have about 15k miles now w/o tranny problems...just shitty ass bugs like this one.

Going back to the dealer to fix for free. Under warranty I assume.

Just a heads up for you CL owners.

sounds like your mirror selector switch is on either the right or left mirror setting. it has to be in the center for the mirror tilt feature to work in reverse.
