Auto fold side mirror repair?
Hello all, when my wife backed up our 13 RX350 out of the garage, the driver side mirror hit the garage wall and the mirror bend forward a little. Now the auto fold mirror can still fold all the way in fine, but it doesn't unfold all the way out and need to unfold it manually while the motor was still running. Just wondering if anyone has experience repairing it?
I worry that dealer will just ask to replace the entire unit and that will cost a fortune
Please advise,

May try to take it apart to see what's going on inside. Any tips are welcome too..

Dealer was kind enough to replace it under warranty. The whole mirror unit was replaced, so the inner door panel was removed to accomplish that. I think that mirror unit costs $1K+...
