Default Side mirrors acting strangely in reverse?

Hi all,

Just purchased a '23 Black Line and noticed the passenger side mirror angles up instead of down & drivers side mirror angles out instead of down when I put the car in reverse. I know I can set the switch in the middle to avoid any movement of the mirrors, but wondering if this is just a programming issue? The mirrors do work as they should when using left/right/up/down button, so there is nothing reversed as far as the plugs or motors go. Weird, right?

While in reverse, adjust it. Put it in drive. Make sure it goes back to where it should be. Then put it in reverse again to see if it goes to where you've adjusted it.

Expanding on Seansky's correct answer, the new position setting when reversing is memorized
for all drivers when in reverse. It is not entered into your 1/2/3 Memory buttons. Whenever you
do not want the "down and out" view while backing, just return the selector to the middle as you
have done previously.
