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 Coach Auto Restyler 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 will separate from the vehicle. Signs of this issue may include metal corrosion around the frame, wind noise, vibration, visual bond separation, or water leakage. If the glass separates, it could create a road hazard, strike a trailing vehicle, and cause 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 Coach Auto Restyler or visit Webasto's website at www.sunroofcheck.com. Owners can also call Webasto toll-free at 1-888-749-8632. Webasto will perform the corrective action for this safety recall.
