Azera rear sunshade by honestbroker1

Anyone besides me have a horrible problem with their rear sunshade? It got stuck between up and down. Now, when I put the car in R, it buzzes terribly as the car automatically tries to lower the sunshade for visibility safety reasons, then I put the car in D, and ~100 ft down the road it tries to raise itself and the distracting (dangerously so) noise is even louder. Dealer said there is a TSB but didn't even have the needed part on hand (a gear). Dealer left in in this condition while they ordered the part as if it is safe for me to drive it like this.
 
This is my second needed warranty repair for my 2007 Ltd. in under 9000 miles. I am NOT happy or impressed. Otherwise it is a nice car but my overall ownership experience is not up to my standards/expectations after owning a 2004 Toyota RAV 4 and 2003 Mazda Protege5 (155k between them and NO warranty repairs needed).

I have owned Audi's for 20 years.All had many warranty issues during the warranty time.
 
I would never use the sun shade, so it will not be an issue. My advice:Turn it off.You don't need it.

When in doubt, "SEARCH" it out. There are lengthy discussions in two threads:
 
"Hyundai Azera 2006" beginning around post #3319

Sorry to hear about your sunshade problem, but one of my concerns was the ability to turn it off - which you can. Anything with a motor that operates as much as this does may eventually have problems. I leave mine on 75% of the time and no problems so far. However, I also tend to park so that I do not have to put it in reverse. On my Camry, I had to get out of the car to raise or lower it, which made it almost useless.

Thanks for the message. I wish I could turn it off...that's the biggest problem right now. The dealer did not leave it in a safe mode while waiting for the part to come in. Using the button next to the shifter does not result in the sunshade being turned off! I just have to wait until the dealer finally does get around to repairing the system

I appreciate your perspective. Mine is this: if a manufacturer installs a system in my car, it will very likely be used so it should be reliable. And, because I live in the desert, and because I do not like tinting, the sunshade...when it works...is very useful. Thanks again.

A potential safety concern. The Klowns in Korea and their dealers better pay attention to this issue.

RE: 5
When my sunshade was malfunctioning, I was able to lower it by manually assisting it down while someone activated the button near the shifter.
It than stayed in the down position unless the button was depressed again.
