Peugeot 208 Sun Blind Defect

I am writing to report a defect in my Peugeot 208, built in 2020, equipped with a diesel engine. With a mileage of 29538 km, the sun blind has become defective. The symptoms include the sunblind no longer retracting and extending, getting stuck in one position, and an error being stored in the error memory. The likely cause, according to initial diagnostics, is a defective sunblind motor. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Oh, that sucks. I have a 208 too, and I had a similar problem with my sun blind last year. It started with it getting stuck sometimes, then it just stopped working altogether. Is yours the one over the panoramic roof?

Indeed, it is the sun blind for the panoramic roof. Could you elaborate on the specifics of the issue you encountered?

Yep, same here. It's a real pain, especially in summer. I messed around with it for ages trying to fix it myself, but no luck. Eventually, I just took it to a workshop. They told me the motor was shot and replaced the whole sun blind unit. Honestly, I'd recommend taking yours in, might save you some headaches.

Thank you for the information. Based on your experience and the workshop's assessment, I will proceed with arranging a repair. The estimated cost is approximately 330€.
