Complaint Summary
STRUCTURE:BODY
Owner Narrative
Manufacturing defect in the rear window frame (Backlite) causing severe water intrusion. Water is pooling directly onto the RF Hub (Radio Frequency Hub) electrical module and wiring harness. This creates a high risk of unintended vehicle shutdown while driving or a total electrical short-circuit/fire. This is a known issue documented in TSB 23-016-21 and Warranty Bulletin D-23-17, yet the manufacturer is refusing to honor the 8-year warranty extension for my specific VIN despite the safety risk.
Owner-submitted narrative on file with NHTSA. Complaint narratives are self-reported and have not been verified.
