First sub freezing day in Portland, OR. Mirrors did not unfold. I had to manually ”unstick” them before they returned to normal operation. FWIW, I had pre-warmed the R1T for at least 5 minutes.

I've had this happen enough times in Eastern Washington that I changed the setting to tell them to never fold in automatically. I'll change the setting back in the spring.

On another note, anyone have issues with the doors freezing and not shutting after you get them open? The driver door has done it a couple times for me.

It seems like most Rivian engineers must be in Irvine and must not have much experience with Illinois-style winters.
