Service bulletin JTB00368NAS4
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

Creaking noises from the rear edge of the roof opening panel area, only when the opening panel in the closed position, during vehicle torsional inputs. This bulletin is a potential addition to the Service Instruction originally included in Service Action K117 (now expired) as this particular concern will normally occur while driving with the roof opening panel closed over undulations in the road such as, but not exclusively: drain covers, traffic calming measures, and uneven road surfaces.
