What was wrong

Defect

THE ADHESIVE BOND THAT ATTACHES THE T-BAR ROOF GLASS PANELS TO THEIR FRAMES MAY DETERIORATE. COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE ADHESIVE SYSTEM CAN RESULT IN SEPARATION OF THE GLASS PANEL FROM THE VEHICLE.

Manufacturer remedy

DEALER WILL INSTALL RETAINING CLIPS ON BOTH T-BAR ROOF PANEL ASSEMBLIES. HOWEVER, IF GLASS PANEL SEPARATION HAS ALREADY OCCURRED, A NEW PANEL ASSEMBLY WILL BE INSTALLED AT NO COST TO OWNER.
