Get yourself a small tube of lithium grease and apply to the cast metal indentations that will become visible once you fold them. You will need to grease a few times a year…..again, they are tight and not easy to fold.

Your right, I have a, 2017. I didn’t know this till now, thanks to this article. I was in a jam a year, or so ago, and knowing this would have been great to know. After reading this article. I just went out, and took a closer look at the mirrors, and realized they should fold. So pushing very hard almost to the point I thought I was going to breaking them. They both were extremely hard to move, but then they started to fold. So, I applied marine grease to the area that this person talking about. Now they fold much easier. Better to know late, than never. LOL 😂
