I have a 2023 Tahoe Z71 that I purchased in August 2023. Around December, I went into the setting and activated "auto tilt side mirrors when in reverse" for both sides. I tried the feature for about a month and didn't like it. I went back into settings and disabled it for both sides.

When I first disabled both mirrors from tilting, the left went down and the right tilted upwards???

Ever since then, when I now start my car, the left mirror tilts down, the right mirror stays normal. When I put it into drive, the left mirror never returns to the normal spot. I have to manually move it back into position.

Anyone else have same issue? Any advice?

I suppose you already had the service appt… but what about resetting the mirror position, and then resetting your Driver 1 or Driver 2 memory switch?

Is the mirror tilt associated with the driver 1/driver 2 selection? I thought it only was triggered by fwd/rev selection

I had one side tilt and the other didn't, and just moved it up and down with the door button, next time they both together.

It should be -- assuming that the settings were changed at one point under each driver and saved.

The setting is triggered when you put it in reverse, yes -- but it's just carrying out the setting that's been selected previously. When you put it in drive, the mirrors should simply go back to their standard driving positions. My thought in response to the OP's original problem was that maybe his standard driving mirror positions got saved to Driver 1 or 2 in goofy positions, and now every time he starts the truck with either fob, the mirrors go to those saved positions.

You guys sure that you worked through the various settings combinations? I'm not saying that your issues aren't out of your control, but when mine did the same thing at one point I was able to correct it by working through the scenarios and saving the settings once I got it back on track.

I posted this on a post with a similar issue…. At the end of the day, mirrors have irrational behavior

My 2023 started this (let’s say 75% of the time) and not after any update or service being performed. Upon my recent oil change, dealer said they could not reproduce but they performed a s/w update. Over the last 3 weeks it has occurred less frequently ( let’s say 10% of the time).

Still annoying.

I have 18 months and 12k miles before warranty expires.

I’ll keep reporting it and demonstrate it on my next dealer visit

Any other input or resolution from anyone?

Thanks
