Sunshade latch issue by tehuti

I haven't been on this board in a long while, so this may have been answered already, but I could not find anything about it.
 
Has Chevy or some third party come up with a fix for the rear sunshades so that they don't snap open randomly and scare the crap out of me? I had pretty much given up trying to close them because of this. But it's been 95 degrees or more every day for the last few weeks so every little bit of relief helps. If anyone has rigged their own solution I'd also like to hear about it. I have a 2004 Maxx LS.

I have also had the bejeeezzzzuss scared out of me by the blinds flying open. I find if I close them it never happens, but when my 6 and 10 year olds close them it happens a lot... cheap fix = close them carefully yourself.

GM has a fix for that they did it on my 04 Maxx and it worked great. Not sure what the TSB is on it. It was done in the summer of 05. Hope this helps.

Nope, I tried. I have a hitch on the back of my Maxx. I slipped my bike rack on to the hitch, and wedged the piece between the open hatch and the bike hitch. While it worked great, I know this is of no solice to you. Sorry.

back seat lever / handle stripped , 05 maxx by drej

I managed to tug on the lower back pass side adjustment lever too hard and complete stripped it and broke it off. I was lowering and then lifting the seat-back.
I can't believe they would design a lever made of plastic with internal splines like that... I mean it just spun off as it was made of clay. I don't think I've used it more than 3 or 4 times since I've had the car. ~ 24K D~

Take it in. They have had a problem with those. I broke mine, as well as the pull-out visor on the skylight, on the first day I had my '05 and they replaced all for free. They said they have had alot of problems with those parts. At least one other maxx was in for similar parts.

Same thing happen to me 3 weeks ago. They replace it. Now my radio controls on the steering wheel are sticking. I guess another trip is in order.
