My son's Ibiza mirror did this. I wish I could say we fixed it but I couldn't get it to behave. It's clearly knocked out of position but the best I could get was clicking it back into the right place but the fold doesn't work properly.

Electric folding mirrors are such a waste of space. Totally unnecessary and they always feck up.

The mirror stop position, should be controlled by some sort of limit switch.
so, id say you need to strip the mirror and find out if there is a micro limit switch for open and closed position. Closed position is obviously working so you need to either replace the bad switch or repair it to act the same as the working switch.

The should be some sort of ball and detent that it clicks into when it hits its position so look at this also when you open the mirror. It might not be putting enough resistance on the mirror to tell the motor to stop.
Hope these ideas help let us know how you go....??

I would have thought pop mirror out and then you should see clips that hold the cover on. Prise mirror out with flat screwdriver or trim removal tool

I open mirror, and there is no microswitch or something. Simply mirror went over this "border". Car is under warranty but they refuse it and say that i broke the "border"?????

If it has no visible damage they can't deny a warranty claim. Just stick by your guns and keep hounding.
