Seems to me the headlights are operating as intended. When you're driving straight into the sun it can often be a glaring situation where vehicles are difficult to see because of the bright light or falling in a shadow. Headlights on also turns on the marker lights making your car more visible from the back. With the sun in front, cars can sometimes become hard to discern from the surroundings, and the lights can help.

To me, it seems like a good mode of operation and mine seem to work just as I'd like them too. Having the lights on more often than you might prefer doesn't seem much of a bother.

Dunno about the mirrors. Mine work fine. Hope you're able to figure something out about them.
