The sunroof may experience failure of either the left- or right-side sunroof guide rail which could cause the sunroof to become detached from its operating mechanism and bind. The operator may hear a cracking noise if this condition occurs. If this condition occurs, the sunroof glass panel will remain attached to its frame, but further attempts to operate will result in continued noise and abnormal operation due to the binding condition. If a vertical force is applied (for example customer manually aiding the sunroof to close or wind lift) the glass panel can become fully detached from the vehicle.
