Default Sunroof is acting flaky, any BTDT?

Twice in the last 2 days my sunroof has decided to ignore the sunroof control **** and just remain closed. Later, after the car has sat, the sunroof functions normally.

Any btdt? I'd guess it's a sunroof switch problem.

Default Yes, Ive had the motor and switch replaced, two different ocasions.

Motor stopped working, had to use the manual crank to close, replaced motor.

Months later, **** started acting crazy, turn it and it would tilt instead of slide. The switch was faulty and replaced.

Both under warranty.

Default just a thought... a S/A told me when a battery is about to go....

the sunroof acts goofy and will go partially open or close and open.

Default Yup, that's how it behaves.

Strange, eh? Not to mention, just a touch annoying.
