Home › Cars & vehicles › Safe Fleet — Roof Hatch External Handle May…
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the roof hatch external handle breaks, in the event of an emergency, the hatch cannot be easily opened from outside the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
Specialty will provide vehicle manufacturers with replacement hatch handles, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Specialty customer service at 1-800-951-7867.
