Power sunshaded fails to operate

mike.a.p · 09-26-2010, 04:14 PM

I have a powered sunshade in my 07' 328xi that fails to open if the cars interior is hot (around 70 oF). I can hit the button on the console but it fails to deploy.

If I wait for the car to cool down (interior) (a few hours), then it works normally. But what's the point of having a sun shade that won't deploy when the sun's out?

Is this something known - should I take it the the dealer. I have 1 month left on the 4 year new car warantee then 2 years CPO.

Sounds like a pretty random issue. Definitely take it into the dealer while you're under the full warranty.

My '07 328xi's works in all temperatures, hot or cold (I am sure I just jinxed it, that but that's what warranty is for)
