Sun Screen Roller ?

Okay, probably a few months before a trek back to the dealer.

When the sunroof fabric screen is extended, back near the roller it forms a roll-over crease for about 8 inches and sags as not tensioned.

Looks like the entire head liner including sunroof moldings need to come out to inspect the retractor. I think the material has slid toward the center of the roller and could be simply scooted back to the edge.

This may be one of those deals to leave alone. So far pulling and tugging material to correct the alignment is not working.

Mantra: If it ain't broke........fix it 'til it is.
