GrandlandX Sun Blind Failure

My 2023 Vauxhall GrandlandX gasoline has a sun blind issue at 67728 km. It's stuck, won't retract/extend, and throws an error. Suspect the motor. Anyone else seen this?

Oh, that sucks! I know exactly how you feel. I had something similar happen with my GrandlandX. Sun blinds are seriously important for UV protection, especially for the little ones in the back. Is yours completely jammed, like a window that won't budge, or is it making any noise at all?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, it's pretty much completely jammed. No strange noises, just complete failure. Did you manage to resolve the issue yourself, or did you need to take it to a workshop? I'm trying to avoid a costly repair bill if possible, but it's looking like that is inevitable.

Honestly, I wouldn't even try to fix it yourself unless you're a wizard with car electrics. Mine was the same – completely dead. I bit the bullet and took it to a workshop. Cost me around 330€, but at least it's sorted. Better than messing something else up and having it be a domino effect of issues, you know?

Appreciate the advice. I suspected as much, and it sounds like a workshop visit is the only viable option. Thank you for confirming that it will most likely resolve the issue. I will book it in and hopefully, the repair cost will be in the same ballpark as yours.
