RX300 mirror retracting in error

The left mirror retracts quite frequently (folding forwards) when I turn the ignition on. It will not return to the correct position when I activate the retraction switch, even numerous times. I have to fold it back into position manually. Anyone else have this problem?

I heard that it was a faulty "position sensor" in the mirror body. It is not repairable thus the whole unit needs to be replaced!
