Recall 2018159

The issue

Certain tinted windshields sold as accessories through BMW dealerships may fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 205 - Glazing Materials. The windshields may contain extra tinting in certain areas, which would be contrary to the requirements of the standard and could potentially limit the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the tinted windshield with one that meets the standard's requirements.

Description (français)

Certains pare-brise teintés vendus en tant qu'accessoire par les concessionnaires BMW pourraient ne pas être conformes aux exigences de la Norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles du Canada (NSVAC) 205 - Vitrages. Certaines parties du pare-brise pourraient avoir une teinte plus foncée, ce qui est non conforme aux exigences de la norme, et cela pourrait réduire la visibilité du conducteur et augmenter les risques d'accident. Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le pare-brise teinté par un pare-brise conforme aux exigences de la norme.
