Recall 2006018

The issue

On certain vehicles, the moonroof assembly incorporates a reinforcement bar that has been incorrectly assembled such that the bar may contact the glass in the assembly and act as a stress riser. It is possible on door closure, severe road impact or when operated that the moonroof glass may shatter. The moonroof glass is tempered safety glass that is designed to fracture into small pieces that are less likely to cause lacerations. Correction: Dealers will replace the moonroof.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le toit ouvrant comporte une barre de renfort qui a été mal montée de sorte qu'elle pourrait toucher à la vitre du toit ouvrant et causer une concentration de contrainte. Il se pourrait que, en fermant une portière, lors d'un accident grave ou en utilisant le toit ouvrant, la vitre du toit ouvrant éclate en morceaux. Le verre du toit ouvrant est du verre de sûreté trempé conçu pour se briser en petits morceaux qui risquent moins de causer des lacérations. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le toit ouvrant.
