A little slow today

So today, as I'm reversing outta my garage..I notice that my side mirror wasn't angling down like it was supposed to. So of course, I start to get upset considering I have 7,038 miles on my '03. I drive to my dealership..stomp into the service department..start yelling at one of the services reps about my problem. He just stares..walks out of the service department, signals to follow him to my car. He opens my drivers door side, points to where you adjust your side mirrors...and what do you know..the lever was pushed to the "Right." I felt like a total idiot...apologized to the service tech. and went on my way.

>Our side mirror won't tilt down when your in reverse if the lever to adjust the side mirror is either to the left or right. Hehe, didn't know this...thought I'd share w/you guys.

Dude, I've had my '02 TLS for like three weeks, and I just found out this morning my car does that!!! I was going crazy backing out of the garage until it hit me. My friend's Tahoe does the same thing. Too funny!!

I like the feature though. Maybe it will keep me from scratching my wheels.

When i bought my acura from MIAMi Acura they made me come back on and take a class on my car. Pretty much some guy who gets paid to teach ppl about there cars showed me all the tricks to mine, especially that one.

My salesman gave me the walk through on mine when it was delivered to the dealer.

Thats exactly how I felt when I was picking up my '03 S. The salesperson was gonna give me a quick walk-through of the car but I felt that I knew it pretty well considering I had my '99. Boy was I wrong...hehe, well I learned from my mistake and I brough the service rep. some Burger King for lunch and also purchased him a pack of cigarettes.
