Acura RDX 2018 does the side mirror points to ground when in reverse position?

 

According to the 2018 owner's manual (which you can view on Acura's website) they do. Copy/paste from Page 13:

 

Yes, wherever the button is set, L or R, that’s the mirror that points down a bit. There are situations where I wish both tilted down at the same time, but the backup camera helps somewhat.

As to non-folding mirrors on U.S. cars, it was extremely painful to watch the car wash attendant fold the mirrors inwards. Skriiiik!

 

When backing out of my garage, I've noticed on the passenger side mirror is pointing towards the ground level. When I put on drive, the side mirror does not adjust back to its original position. I may have to observe it more if the button is set on R. In Acura RDX next re-design, they should consider having folding side mirrors in when entering the garage. I actually have to fold in one side mirror to prevent hitting it.

 

Learned something new. Did not the RDX had a reverse tilt feature. Have to try it.

 

Some versions of the RDX do have power (guessing that's what you mean) folding mirrors. As with some other items (heated rear seats) U.S. versions, sadly, do not.

Cheers!
