Official summary
Some customers may complain that in extreme cold weather conditions, the sunroof may suddenly open by itself when the heater is on. This concern may be due to a short in the sunroof switch (a) caused from conden-sation generated between the roof panel and the seal. To eliminate this concern in the future, a protective film has been installed to the switch and a pad installed to the harness.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
