Defect
In the door mirror, the surface treatment on the movable contacts inside the mirror switch is inadequate, causing the contacts to wear during switch operation and generate wear debris. Continued use allows the debris to accumulate, oxidize, and increase contact resistance. As a result, the door mirror may retract unexpectedly while driving or while the vehicle is stationary.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the door mirror switch with a corrected part.
