The past couple times I opened and closed my sun roof on my 2014 Silverado a black rubber bellows like gasket about 1 foot long on the right side came out of its track and jammed it up preventing it from closing. I slipped it back in the first time but now it tore itself apart and I had to pull it out in order to close the sunroof. I'm assuming both sides are rotten at this point and need replacement. Seems like a very short life cycle to me seeing as I bought this new just a little over two years ago. I did get a full warranty so we'll see just what that was worth... This appears to need to slide during normal operation. Might some silicone be necessary? What is it's purpose? Rain/noise or both? Is it even necessary?

The rattle we had was coming from headliner behind the passenger seat, and was typically worse at medium to highway speeds. It is noticeably louder with the sunroof cover slid back(open). My fix: Open rear passenger door and stand on running board to access the roof rack. If you wiggle the crossbar of the rack it has the slightest of slack, but just enough to make a clanking sound. I wedged some thin flexible magnet pieces(no the rack isn't magnetic, just what I had handy) in between the crossbar and the roof brace in front of and back of the bar(see pic). Viola...no noise. If these come loose I will come up with something more robust(maybe some two part epoxy). I'm not familiar with the inside of the 2015-2019 Suburban, Tahoe, and regular Yukon's, but the ultra quiet cabin of the Denali amplifies ANY little rattle or strange noise. I was used to the road noise and rattles of my 2007 Suburban(288K). They went kind of hand in hand. This one will take some getting used to. I know, suck it up buttercup. Now...back to the "other" issue... front end clank, clank, clank-clank after medium to hard braking, but occasionally during acceleration, and less occasionally steady speeds. No specific rhythm, almost like it's swinging in the wind, and then it suddenly stops after a few seconds. Please help if you know anything! I WILL fix this too! There is a video from another in a different thread on here that has the EXACT same issue/sound as mine.

Hello. I was going down the road yesterday and the sunroof spontaneously and autonomously opened. I immediately tried to close it, but it wouldn't for several minutes. Finally, it closed. A few more times during the day, every time I started the truck, the sunroof reopened and again took several minutes before it would close. When I got home, I figured out which fuse controlled the sunroof and removed it to keep this from happening. The last thing I need is for it to open when it's pouring rain out, and with my luck it wouldn't close again at all. So, does anyone have any ideas what is causing this?
