Auto down-tilting side mirrors?

I got a loaded SL with the Platinum package. When I first bought it, the side mirror would tilt down when I put the car in reverse, but has since stopped doing that. Is there a setting somewhere that I fowled up or something? Do I need to hit the stealer for service?

Yes, it's your mirror adjustment switch to the left of your steering wheel. Whichever side the switch is on, that mirror will tilt down in reverse. It won't if it's in the middle or neutral position.

So then flip the switch to the middle position and you're good to go.
