Will be interesting to see how many members here experience failures. Whatever the reason for a failure (water penetration?) I would think if the percentages are that high there will be a fix.

Lots of us have turned them off so they do not cycle every time the car is turned on and turned off. I'm one of those folks. I live in a rural area, do not garage-park, and don't ever park that close to other cars. My circumstances and environment are such that there's no need for my mirrors to constantly (or ever) fold in. I've probably manually cycled them twice, and that was just to do it and not out of necessity. It's a matter of need (or not need).
I don't know what percentage of owners have turned off the auto-folding feature, and how many have left them on.
I don't know what percentage of owners have turned off the auto-folding feature said:I turned mine off for the same reasons. At first I though it was a good visual indication that the car was locked but I soon disabled.
Now the question is: is it cycles of use, or time? One would think cycles, but there isnt any data to back the assertion, and corrosion is more about time, so...
One of the problems with cars today is that there's way too much technology and not enough CAR!
If it is a water or moisture issue, then that likely would eliminate motor wear as a cause regardless of whether the mirrors were disabled.
Actually I never saw the point of folding the mirrors, either automatically or manually, and I live in tight-spaced NYC. When the mirrors are in their normal position other cars and bikes have to steer clear of them, which actually protects the sides of your vehicle. If the mirrors are folded, that allows other vehicles and bikes to edge CLOSER to your vehicle. I'd rather have the mirror hit than the fenders and doors, and I've never had more than minor scratches on the mirrors, which fold forward when they're hit, alleviating the force.

I could be wrong but the adaptive lights may not be covered under the warranty- specially the LEDs- did you check with them. If they are then I may get it for my 2019 CX-9.
My E.W. Is with Zurich thru my dealer,Della Mazda autogroup.I did ask about the headlights and they said covered.It is there comprehensive plan,the highest plan offered.I will call Zurich and confirm.The adaptive headlight unit I believe has intergrated LED*s,which according to Mazda are good for 30 years,they should outlast the vehicle.There is a contol unit/ box that runs the system.The warranty states glass lenses,sealed beams,light bulbs are not covered.Like I say will confirm coverage.
