The issue
On certain vehicles, the grabhandles were mounted too high and may limit the ability to maintain 3-points of contact at all times. This condition may cause a person to slip and/or fall and could lead to personal injury. Correction: Dealer will relocate the handle to the proper height.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, les poignées montoirs ont été posées trop haut, ce qui peut empêcher un utilisateur de garder le contact avec trois points d'appui en tout temps. Il se peut alors que cette personne glisse ou tombe et se blesse. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reposer les poignées montoirs à la bonne hauteur.
