Product description
Replacement glass rear windscreens for Toyota Spacia Wagons which were manufactured by Xinyi Automobile Glass (Shenzhen) Co. Ltd and sold in Australia between August 2008 and February 2009
Reasons the product is recalled
The potential defect is that the central area of the rear windscreen may not shatter into sufficiently small enough pieces when broken. No such incidents have been experienced in Australia but the supplier is recalling the 5 potentially affected units as a precaution.
The hazards to consumers
Glass from a broken rear windscreen that shatters into larger pieces is more likely to cause cuts.
What consumers should do
The supplier will contact the 5 affected customers directly to arrange a replacement at no cost. Customers can call O'Brien on (02) 9795 3499 to arrange for the replacement.
