Sunshade doesn't retract

Asked by Bob Jul 29, 2011 at 06:43 PM about the 2006 Pontiac G6 Base

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a panoramic sunroof (which works) however, my sunshade doesn't retract properly and hangs down (nor does it close fully - still loose). Any ideas?

the shade has come off the brakets holding in place ,. The only why to fix this is to remove the roof moulding major job, the shade is exactly like the ones in your house you have to preload it on the brakets 5 to 6 turns then giude it through the tracks, be carefull not to lose the little rubber cromets that are on the shade stiffeners . Its a good idea to tie strings around both ends of the shade when you preload it then cut them off as you attach the front of the shade to the pull arms at the front of the track . Warning must have lots of patience
