Axio - Side mirrors not unfolding when heated

[Harshadewa]

Hi,

I have a Toyota Axio 2014 Hybrid car.
Im facing a problem with its side mirrors.

When I park the car, I fold the mirrors. 
Then I come back and push the button to unfold it; it doesn't work.
This happens when I park the car in a place with direct sunlight.
When it's parked in a place where it's not exposed to direct sunlight it works fine.

Happens for both mirrors.
As I can't drive without side mirrors, I unfold them by hand.
I feel like its not a good thing to unfold them by hand.

So anyone can suggest a solution for this?

Thanks

I think this is a common issue with Axio. My 2015 Axio had this issue as well but only on the driver side mirror. So it was easy to unfold by hand. I just press the fold/unfold button and give it a small push by hand while the motor is running. Don't know how to solve it though. Maybe removing the cover and greasing up the clog wheels would make it work for some time.

As @asrock has pointed out its a common issue with the Aqua and Axio.. Maybe due to their side mirrors sharing the components. Guess you will have to live with it.. But, I heard Toy#ta L#nka doing something to repair it so if it bothers you a lot you can maybe consult them and see. There maybe others also who can work on it and improve the condition maybe.

This is an in born issue with Toyota Axio Hybrid. It happens only when you park the car under sunlight and only on the right side, especially around 1o am to 3 pm. Due to the heat, something goes wrong. It's better you live with it as Dee Jay said or park the car in a cool [lace and see.

Toyota Aqua also having same issue. @asrockmethod (just press the fold/unfold button and give it a small push by hand while the motor is running) is the best solution so far.
