I hardly ever close the sun shade. Really like the pano roof. When I did close, it appears to be misaligned. I can see sun coming through the drivers side, not passenger side. My F350 with the pano does not have this issue. Has anyone had this issue? If so, fix?

Thanks

I don't believe mine is like that. I'll try to remember tomorrow to look. But I think I would have noticed as I keep the shade closed a lot or it gets too hot in the vehicle in the AZ sun.

Mine doesn't let any light in by the shade. Maybe the dealer can see if it needs to be calibrated and it's not closing all the way?

Quick update. Dealer took a look, will not reset, so have to pull the entire liner down to fix. This is an overnight stay for the ST at the dealer.

Thanks for the update. Mine has a TINY gap that I'm sure no one else will ever notice. Please post again once the dealer is finished. I'm curious to see how things go.

Update. Broken cable in shade. Requires replacing the entire track one dealer reports. Taking into shop on Friday to a larger dealer with body shop, the smaller dealer I use said the job was too big for them. I’ll update late in the week.

Well, there is a good and bad. The good news is the pano roof is fixed. See attached report. The bad news is now I have a dent in my pano roof frame. Dealership is looking into it. Their initial response was “well, that won’t hurt anything.” Looks like about at thousand dollar fix from what I saw.
