Complaint Summary

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

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.
