It's a nice feature. I use it out of habit every time I park. The process has become "automatic".

I for one am glad it is NOT automatic. My 2013 did not have power fold mirrors and it was the first mod that I did to it, and one night at work we had a wet snow that turned to ice. When I went to unfold the mirrors the drivers side took a crap because of the frozen snow. I added the power fold on my 14 but will never make that mistake again. JMO...

I press/hold (about 2 seconds) the lock button on the FOB as I walk away, to fold them.

Press/Hold the unlock button until the second flash of the corner lights to unfold them.  If you hold the unlock past the second flash, the windows will ALL lower.

 

We had a good coat of dew a few weeks ago, and my folded mirrors and the adjacent glass was dry.  Likewise, last winter, frost not on my folded mirrors, nor the section of windows next to them.

Glad I found this I was wondering the same thing. Pretty minor to have to hold the button for an extra second but kind of silly imo to allow me to turn it on/off in settings like it is something that is prompted by the truck locking or being put in park. Also nice to learn about the windows down with the unlock but no windows up with the lock? 10 year old Audis have these features.

Yeah, my '06 & '10 Ridgelines would roll the windows up, but you had to use the driver's door keyhole.  The windows would remote/key down, but only key up, double-clutching all three options.  My Ridgelines would also power to the rear slider and sunroof, but you have to hold the interior switches to do it, would not do open/close off of the remote or the keyhole otherwise.  Haven't played with my truck enough to see if it will do the same as my Ridgelines did.

My wife's pilot rolls the windows down if the fob unlock gets pressed for a couple seconds in our pockets. It's super annoying and I wish we could disable it.

Interesting, never tried the single press method with our '16 Pilot, when we had it.  Could have swore that the current generation still required double-clutching the unlock to roll the windows down.  I'll do some digging in the Piloteer forum to see if others had the same issue and came up with any solutions, but it may be as simple as digging around through the settings on the vehicle.

I use the “auto fold” only on occasion but I bought I’ve seen them go back into place upon putting the truck in reverse.   Am I wrong?

They don't go out until you request it with the button  or the fob.

 

Which is good, for those that fold them in to get through the garage door.....

It's called an "Owner's Manual" --- one comes with every new vehicle.

I think that maybe he looked. I looked at the manual but didn't find anything. You know you can just save yourself some time and avoid posting if you aren't going to be helpful.
