Official summary

Some customers may comment that under certain cross wind or windy conditions there is a rattle coming from the luggage carrier area. Changing the position of the luggage carrier crossbars may change the noise but not eliminate it entirely. The looseness may be felt in in the crossbar latches on vehicles exhibiting the rattle condition. Nlm

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.
