Defect Description For Recall
Webasto Is Recalling Certain Hollandia 700 And 600 Series And Hollandia Tvs 900 Series Sunroofs Sold As Aftermarket Equipment For Various Passenger Vehicles. The Adhesive Bond Between The Glass And The Metal Frame Can Debond Increasing The Risk That The Sunroof Glass Would Separate From The Vehicle. Complete Glass-To-Frame Debonding Can Develop Gradually And May Be Evidenced By Metal Corrosion Around The Sunroof Frame, Wind Noise, Vibration, Visual Bond Separation And/Or Water Leakage. These Conditions May Be Observable For Several Months Before Complete Glass-To-Frame Adhesion Debonding Can Ultimately Occur.
