What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect where the sunroof glass can separate, posing a significant risk of injury or property damage to trailing vehicles.

Plain-English summary

Webasto Product North America, Inc. is recalling certain Hollandia 700 and 600 series and Hollandia TVS 900 series sunroofs. These sunroofs were installed as original equipment by Dutton's Upholstery on various passenger vehicles. The recall began on October 8, 2010.

The defect involves the adhesive bond between the sunroof glass and the metal frame, which can debond. This increases the risk that the sunroof glass would separate from the vehicle. Signs of gradual debonding may include metal corrosion around the frame, wind noise, vibration, visual bond separation, and water leakage.

If the glass separates, the falling glass could create a road hazard or strike a trailing vehicle, potentially causing a crash. Owners who have been identified as having an affected sunroof will receive a safety recall notice from Webasto. To determine if a vehicle is affected, owners should review the affected vehicle list provided by Dutton's Upholstery or visit Webasto's website at www.sunroofcheck.com. Webasto will perform the corrective action.
