# Service bulletin SB\-17\-11\-006

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.

## NHTSA's summary

Certain Model 3 vehicles have primary body seals that lack slip coat. Raising a window might require additional effort by the regulator motor, and might be falsely identified as a pinch condition.
