Cassette Player & Sunroof Problem

First issue is the cassette player for my Bose HU is for some reason, stuck in a loop. It keeps ejecting and loading, even though there is nothing inside and it does this whenever the car is on. I don't know if there is some kind of sensor inside of it that detects when a tape is present or not but I tried blowing some compressed air (from a can) inside but it is still ejecting and loading imaginary tapes.

Everything was fine until a week or so ago when I started hearing it make the eject sound after I start the car, now it does it constantly.

Next problem is my sunroof for some reason is not locked into position when its closed all the way. One side of it is locked but the other isn't, I can push up on the glass from inside the car and it just pops right up, the metal slider thing is still connected to the glass but it doesn't hold that particular side down. But the sunroof still functions, it slides but won't raise or lower.

When I drive fast enough the sunroof actually pops up and I can hear it pop back down when I slow down. I did not realize it was the sunroof making that noise until recently when I saw my sunroof strangely high on one side and when I pushed on it, it just lifted right up.

Thank you guys!

Okay guys desperately need help now. Anytime I go 60 MPH and up, the front of the sun roof lifts up. High enough where I can feel wind inside the car if I slide open the cover.

It seems like I am the only one with this problem because searching gave me no answers. Everyone had problems with it being stuck or not functioning properly. Mine is trying to backflip off the car whenever I go fast.

Guess it might be time to tape her up.

It sounds like you need to rebuild or replace the sunroof track.
What is this cassette thing you speak of? Is that the strange hole in the Bose unit?
I always wanted to know what went in there.... J/k.

Yeah I guess its time to upgrade to a fancy touch screen thingy.

And you are right I found some broken metal pieces in the tracks of the side that is broken. My poor wallet.
