After going through a car wash my passenger side tow mirror will no longer fold in when I hit the button. The touchless washer arm bumped the mirror but barely folded the mirror in maybe 10 degrees. Does anyone know of any tricks to re sync the mirror? Thanks

Mine is a '23 Big Horn 1500 with the tow mirrors. No power tow, so different...

My passenger side also got tweaked in a car wash. I usually fold them in, but forgot to do so this time. For over a month, it wouldn't snap into place. So every time a passenger got in and shut the door, I would have to re-adjust it. I was able to just finagle it by wiggling it up and down a little bit. It eventually snapped into place and has been fine since.

The tow mirrors are definitely a hazard in the modern drive through car washes.
