Default C6 side mirrors not functioning correctly

My side mirrors point down every time I start my car and they won’t go back to driver settings unless I manually move them back with button. What’s wrong?

Are you using a fob that was programmed for the car as fob #3 or fob #4?

Rebooting C6's computers has worked solving all sorts of electronic gremlins, like this.
Disconnect battery's Neg, After a few minutes re-connect.
Test system by entering new settings, see if they hold.
Remember, anytime power's interrupted windows must be re-indexed per procedure in Owner's Manual.

Rebooting's the easiest, fastest & cheapest 1st step troubleshooting these gremlins.
IF it doesn't work then must dig deeper. G/L

Did you try to re-learn the memory seat button? It worked for me...

Do what he said^^ I think they are tied to your seat settings. I had to reset mine and the window indexing when I unplugged the battery for some work. Once I moved them back and held down seat button, good to go.
