What is being recalled

THE GLASS TEMPERING PROCESS ON THE RIGHT HAND REAR DOOR WINDOWS WAS NOT CORRECTLY PERFORMED. THIS DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 205, "GLAZING MATERIALS."

Why it is dangerous

CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: IF THE WINDOW BREAKS, THE GLASS FRAGMENTS OF THE REAR WINDOWS EXCEED THE SIZE SPECIFICATIONS OF FMVSS NO. 205.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE RIGHT REAR DOOR GLASS.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 95V-009 when calling a dealer.
