SM3 Sun Blind Failure

Has anyone had issues with the sun blind on a 2016 Renault SM3 with a gasoline engine? Mine's done 188009 km. It's stuck, won't retract or extend, and there's an error code. Diagnostics suggest the motor's gone.

Interesting. I have an SM3 myself, and I had something similar happen a while back. Was it making any weird noises before it completely gave up? Like a clicking or grinding sound when you tried to use it?

Thanks. No, there weren't any strange noises before it failed. It just stopped. Were your symptoms the same?

Yep, sounds exactly like what happened to mine. No warning, just stopped working one day. I fiddled with it for a bit, but honestly, I'd just take it to a workshop. Could be the motor, like you suspect. They'll be able to diagnose it properly and give you a proper fix.

Thanks for the confirmation and advice. I'm taking it to a workshop for a diagnosis and repair. The estimated cost is around 330€.
