Rear View Mirror

Every time I go to press the HomeLink button, my mirror shoots up on that side and obviously goes out of adjustment. When I remember, I try to support the top of the mirror with my hand while pressing the button with my thumb. It's still very annoying. Is it just mine or is this an issue with design? It's not made rigid enough to support the slightest force. Just wondering if it's worth a dealer visit or not.

My rearview mirror doesn't move if I push the homelink button. I have to conciously push hard to get it to tilt away.

Interesting. Ok, then for sure something is up with mine cause the slightest force to push the button moves the whole assembly up. I'll bring it up to the dealer next time I'm there.

Guess I never gave it any thought, always pinching the mirror and button between thumb and forefinger, been doing it that way on all my cars forever.

I for some reason remembered this thread when I left my garage today. I do the "pinch" like kj07xk does. My last car had the Homelink on the visor.

mine is pretty much the same way but maybe not quite as sensitive as yours but it does move but I try and hold the mirror while the other finger pushes the button
