What can go wrong

The panoramic roof adhesive and primer used in the assembly bonding of the panoramic roof glass panel may not have been to the correct specification. If the concern occurs there will initially be wind noise when driving or parked and on closing a door the panoramic roof might be seen to lift. If the concern is not rectified the panoramic roof could detach from the vehicle when it is in motion causing risk of collision/injury to other road users.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and apply the correct primer and adhesive to the panoramic roof assembly.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
