This truck does not even warn (tell) you that the sunroof is tilted  . I cannot believe a 50k truck with out this simple feature... now my visor and part of the floor is soaked this is really horrible

You mean tilted as in not closed completely or tilted because you're on a hill?
With that kind of defect you should sell it immediately and purchase a Toyota Sequoia.

I didn't even realize that trucks and cars had warning devices for the sunroof. I have an older Avalon and Toyota 4 runner along with the Armada and when I put the sun roof in tilt or open it while driving, it is automatically one of my checks when turning off the vehicle to shut it back up. I guess I am use to the old fashion way!

You mean you actually check visually if the roof has been closed?
Tell me it isn't so...

The only car I ever drove with a sunroof was a '74 Volvo sedan. I couldn't tell from the inside if the sunroof was really closed and even worse, sometimes I couldn't even tell from the outside. It never really leaked too much though.

Huh? I've never seen or heard of a car or truck that warns you when you forgot you left the sunroof open or tilted. Have I been missing something? Are there any vehicles that warn you when you park the car and forget to close the windows? I guess it could be an interesting feature, but I've never heard of that.

I don't know if I visually check but before I turn off my vehicle I check windows and sunroof if I know I have used them......sad but true

The ones that have saved my bacon over the years are the "your lights are on" and "you forgot your keys" dings and bells.
Haven't had a sunroof in 30-odd years so I don't know - but with my memory, it couldn't hurt.

Maybe you haven't had a sunroof for 30 odd years because they are actually moon roofs. Sunroofs are made of metal, those that are transparent are actually moon roofs.

tilted up.... yes I guess I could stand on the step bar and look on top of the truck to see the roof but that is really a pain.... what I mean by warn is it has a nice picture on the dash that shows you the truck and symbols when the door is open but doesn't show the sunroof open
