The roof is a one-piece painted metal unit which incorporates a single solid headliner. There are 2 moldings, one per side on the vehicle's roof, which enclose and hide the roof rail seams. The roof moldings are serviceable as individual units.
The one-piece formed headliner consists of a molded substrate covered with a foam-backed cloth facing. The one-piece construction requires that the headliner be serviced as a complete assembly.
Notice: Some vehicles equipped with sunroofs utilize drain tubes, routed through the upper body pillars, to prevent water from entering the vehicle. Use care not to damage the drain tubes, otherwise, damage to the interior of the vehicle may occur.
The sunroof has the following characteristics:
• | Intended to provide light and air through the roof the vehicle |
• | Built into the roof |
• | Made of glass |
• | Equipped with a sunshade that opens and closes manually |
• | Powered by an electric motor |

The sunroof control switch is a toggle button located on the right side of the lamp/switch assembly.

The sun visors swing down in order to block out glare. They also swing to the side when they are released from the support.
There is a passenger assist handle for each rear outboard seat and for the front passenger seat. Passengers can use these handles to assist in keeping their balance over rough roads or during sharp turns.
The courtesy lamp is located on the headliner above the rearview mirror. The lamp switch is located on the left side of the lamp/switch assembly and has 3 positions. If the switch is in the center position, the lamp will go on whenever a door is opened and go off when it is closed. In the forward position, the lamp will stay on until it is turned off. In the rear position, the lamp will not come on, even when a door is opened. The sunroof control switch is also located on the interior courtesy lamp assembly.
