Issue

On vehicles modified with a pop-up roof, the adhesive method used to attach the full-roof cover is improperly applied. Continued use allows the cover to progressively detach. In the worst case, the cover may separate completely while the vehicle is in motion, creating a hazard to other traffic.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the full-roof cover with a corrected part that includes additional mounting bolts.
