Does your sunroof visor go all the way back into the roof?

Just curious if your sunroof visor goes all the way back into your roof or if it stops leaving the handle exposed to close it? Mine goes all the way back and the handle gets hidden in the roof, but it makes it difficult to close.

Ya it should leave the handle exposed so you can close the blind easily

When you slide mine back to open, it stops right at the handle leaving it exposed, sounds like yours may need an adjustment.

If the glass roof is closed, the sliding shade should stop so the handle is exposed. If you were to open the glass roof, it will retract the shade past the handle until you close the roof again.

If your shade is sliding all the way back (past the handle) when the roof is closed, then it sounds like something is wrong...

Yep, I think there might be something wrong. When I opened up my sunroof tonight, the visor went all the way under the roof. When I closed the sun roof, the visor remains under the roof...I guess I need to bring it in for service.

I agree -- something isn't right up in there...

Definately faulty, Rudy's explaination is what it should do.

Thanks for your reply.
Just dropped it off today at the dealer, they ordered a kit to fix the Sunroof. Also, they ordered me a new HD Tuner...I was having issues pulling in HD signals also.
