Do you have a Webasto glass paneled sunroof fitted to your car? If so, it might be a good idea to check it. Reports have come from all over the world that sunroofs with glass panels have been flying off because of a problem with the glue fixing the glass to the frame.
The roofs in trouble were made by Webasto, the world’s biggest sunroof and folding roof manufacturer, and marketed as Hollandia. Webasto have been replacing the glass panels, and using a different glue.
Rather than waiting for lift-off, many motorists have been alerted by wind and water leaks or rust as the bonding gradually fails. Check yours today!
Most of the aftermarket sunroofs that are subject to the recall are the Hollandia 700 model, made in Europe. A small proportion are the American-made Hollandia 900 series twin-panel unit.
Motorists with aftermarket Hollandia 700 or 900 sunroofs should go to Webasto’s special website (www.sunroof check.com) for more information about the recall.
Recall notices have been posted in North America, Europe, South Africa, South America and China by Webasto.
