This happened to my car over the weekend, without this forum I would be paying for this repair

I've had this happen once as well, but the next time I started the car, it worked fine again. Been fine since... go figure.

Just had this TSB done to my car. The tilt wheel works again but it doesn't tilt down as much as before. I suspect the second bit of tilt you get after the wheel stops was causing the motor/gears to bind the kit seems to limit the down movement.

My car is in the shop right now for this problem. Yesterday, the dealer told me that the gear was broken. I called him today and informed him about this TSB.
