WHEN PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE THE SIDEVIEW MIRRORS AUTOMATICALLY TURN IN AND DOWN PER LEXUS DEFAULT.

I AM A RETIED TRACTOR-TRAILER OPERATOR, WAS ALSO INSTRUCTOR QUALIFIED IN THE MILITARY,…

NOTE: I THINK THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT BECAUSE THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE WHO COMPLAINED ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM.
