PS360

Component

Visibility: sun/moon roof assembly

Summary

Pitstop: air intake mode changes when opening sunroof - when addressing customer complaints regarding the air intake mode switching from recirculation to fresh air mode without customer input; on the applicable vehicles in this pitstop, the HVAC logic has been modified to switch the air intake mode to fresh air, automatically, when opening the sunroof. This is done to prevent exhaust gases from entering the cabin when the sunroof is open. This condition should be considered “normal operation” and not a malfunction.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 32 complaints in the visibility category.
