Moaning power fold mirrors
My mirror motors sound terrible. Anything I can do about this? They function fine but its embarassing when other people are around.

Still under warranty? Take it in maybe. I am thinking about it before my warranty is up and see if they will do anything.

I would recommend bringing the truck in to the dealer and make sure to get documentation of the issue regardless of the end result. If not solved try a second time. If something fails outside of warranty you might be able to work something out with Ford showing you made a strong attempt to address the issue with two visits. I would not recommend working on it yourself before taking it in due to the risk of breakage or simply them turning it on you as you tightened something wrong, used an incorrect spec lubricant, etc. Sometimes the pros can tell. You just never know...

I've got the same issue; only in one mirror, now that I've added auto fold in the Canadian winter. Sometimes it sounds okay, sometimes it moans like OPs. I'm hoping in the summer it will sort itself out.
