Details

What's wrong: The roof function control unit may be programmed incorrectly, allowing the sunroof to close without the key fob present inside the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 118, "power-operated window systems."

Why it matters: A sunroof that closes without the key fob present inside the vehicle can increase the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will reprogram the roof function control unit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 20, 2022.
