Default Auto Mirrors Issue

On the 2lt & 3LT, when you lock the car with the fob, the mirrors fold in, and when you unlock the car, they return to normal position. However on my 2022 HTC, if I open the driver's door and start the car without first pressing unlock on the FOB, the mirrors stay in the folded position. I have to turn the car off, exit the car, and press the unlock button to get the mirrors return to normal..

There's a button above the power windows switch that folds and unfolds the mirrors.

The should also unfold automatically at about 11 or 12 mph.

My mirrors unfold when I open the down without pressing the fob unlock button. With the fob in my pocket, I open the door and mirrors unfold.

I have folding mirrors on several cars. Once the novelty wore off I stopped caring. In winter I turn off the mechanism so it’s not working against ice. It seems like one of those features that, if you don’t need it, seems kinda pointless, but if park in tight quarters it’s a necessity. It also seems like one of those things that, if you are **** about such things (like I can be), if it doesn’t work properly it would bug the heck out of me even though I never use them.
