I had that happen without towing in my 06. They replaced the TBC.

I agree you can get it with and without a trailer in tow. If in tow, it may pop up if the trailer is feeding back and my first thought was to check that first. If no trailer, it is the truck and most likely the TBC itself.

Heated mirrors stay on no matter what.

TBC fault can sometimes be attributed to a poor + battery cable connection to a battery. I've had this in the past and it just went away.
