The problem

The windscreen may be incorrectly bonded and could become detached from the body of the car in the event of a crash. The passenger airbag being deployed in this case, could not be supported by the windscreen as intended. As a result, the restraining effect of the passenger airbag could be impaired, increasing the risk of injury.

The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
