Official summary
Customers may report excess wind noise from the vehicle and that noise may be coming from the crossbars. As noted in the crossbar instructions, the crossbars should be removed when not in use to reduce fuel consumption from the increased drag and to reduce wind noise. Let the customer know that the instructions show how to install, remove, and adjust the crossbars.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
