Side rearview mirrors.....electronic controller only moves the either mirror downward. Will not move either mirror left, right, or up. Have replaced this controller twice before for the exact same problem. One with the dealer and one on my own. Both times brand new parts. There is another recall for this item but apparently does not include my VIN. !!!!

Windshield wipers work only sometimes. Sometimes have to spin the controller a few times to get them working. Even then they may not work. Frustrating!
