Default Hollandia 700 - 900 Sunroof Recall

Does this affect anyone on here?

https://sunroofcheck.com.au/identify...oof.php#600700

in todays herald sun theres some info on the recall, basically it says the adhesive that holds the glass to the frame can debond = glass flying of i guess...

If your serial number falls between 6000000 and 6396298 your sunroof is covered under this recall.

I see today in the West Australian news paper advertised recalls for Holden and Ford factory fitted sun roofs...........The Ford advert said BA-BAII and BF-BFII, no mention for AU.

Covers Hollandia 700 sunroofs manufactured from 2002-2009 and all Hollandia 900 series sunroofs. Maybe Ford have no records of them being installed in AU3's?

My S/N is 634xxxx fitted by Custom Sunfoofs only last October. Good news is that they had already replaced the glass.

Im thinking this does affect me because I have the Hollandia 700 which was factory installed but I can't find the serial number on it. Original purchase receipt doesn't show any info on the sunroof either.

The serial number is on the front of the sunroof . you can only see it with the roof in full slide back position looking forward

Mine is affected - fitted in July 2008

This should be taken seriously. The sunroof on my Dads BA XR6 came flying off today.

Thanks I found it. Mine is affected so I'll be getting this organised ASAP. Found it interesting that the last 3 digits of the serial number are the same as my build number.
