SERVICE INFORMATION
Some affected vehicles may experience an audible howling noise coming from the rear center of the vehicle roof when the vehicle is traveling at highway
speeds. To eliminate this condition, replace the existing front and rear cross bar inserts with the new improved crossbar insert listed in the "Parts
Information" section, as described in this Service Bulletin.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1.
Remove the holding screws that secure the ends of the cross bar insert to the two stanchions (Figure 1). Repeat this step for the other cross bar.
2.
Press the release button on one of the stanchions and slide the stanchion either forward or backward on its slide rail until the end of the cross bar
insert frees the stanchion. Remove the cross bar insert (Figure 2). Repeat this step for the other cross bar insert.
