Recall 91V031000
Visibility › Windshield — Chevrolet, Pontiac · reported 19 Feb 1991 · 21 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
POOR BOND ADHESION BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD GLASS AND THE MOUNTING, WHICH COULD ALLOW THE WINDSHIELD TO SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE DURING A COLLISION. THIS FAILS TO CONFORM WITH FMVSS 212.
The risk
IF WINDSHIELD SEPARATION OCCURS IN A COLLISION, ANUNBELTED OCCUPANT COULD BE EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE, AND PERSONAL INJURY COULDOCCUR.
The fix
REMOVE ALL SEALER FROM WINDSHIELD AND MOUNTING; APPLY NEW BONDING AND SEALANT MATERIAL, AND REINSTALL WINDSHIELD.
SYSTEM: WINDSHIELD MOUNTING; FMVSS 212.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER CARS.
