The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (roof detachment) that increases the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for structural defects.
