Condition
Some customers may comment of a rattling noise coming from the sunroof or roof area.
Cause
This condition may be caused by the inboard tox rivets, which retain the sunroof center support beam to the side rails, pulling through the side rail track
on one or both sides. This may cause the support beam to rattle against the side rail track.
Correction
Important:
Once the sunroof module is bolted into the roof ring of the vehicle, the support provided by the center beam is no longer necessary. DO NOT
replace the sunroof frame when the above condition is noted.
Install flocking tape between the sunroof center support beam and the side rail track.
1.
Following SI, lower the front portion of the headliner enough to gain access to the sunroof module center support beam through the opening in the
headliner.
2.
Check both sides of the center support beam for loose rivets (2) by inserting a trim stick (1) between the center support and the side rail track.
