If, however, the OP is saying they folded the mirrors by pressing and holding the lock button on the key, there is no reason why the mirrors shouldn't unfold on unlocking the car, so this means a trip to the dealer.
That's exactly what i did, my garage is narrow and i had to fold my mirrors to get in. After that they never worked from keyfob. I also tried the method by holding the lock and it folds fine but upon pressing unlock , it won't unfold. It really annoys me as i only collected my car yesterday ... I will try different things tomorrow..fold and unfold from inside and then use keyfod method...hope it works
