In the VW ID.4, one can retract the rear-view mirrors, making the car a bit narrower, for example for parking. Multiple times, I have started the car and been unable to extend the rear-view mirrors. Not only can I not use the rear-view mirrors, but also, I am distracted trying to figure out how to make them extend. For example, I turn the switch multiple times and failing that, I LOOK at the switch (instead of the road) to verify that I am moving the correct item. This problem has been temporarily mitigated by pulling over, turning off the car, and re-starting it.
This vehicle was recently purchased on 10/14/22 at Mission Bay Volkswagen. The dealership did not fill the window washer fluid reservoir with any fluid. I discovered this during a rainy day when I tried to clean the windshield due to low visibility. Multiple attempts were made to get the window sprayer to work without success. Once I arrived home, I opened the hood and checked the reservoir. Though it is difficult to see the bottom, it appears the car was delivered without any washer fluid.
