The defect
American Custom Golf Cars (ACG) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Moke vehicles. These vehicles may have been built with windshields that do not have laminated glazing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 205, "Glazing Materials," and number 500, "Low Speed Vehicles."
The risk
In the event of a crash, if the non-laminated windshield shatters, it can increase the risk of injury.
The remedy
ACG will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the windshield, replacing any that are not properly labeled AS-1 windshields, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 2018. Owners may contact ACG customer service at 1-909-597-2885. ACG's number for this recall is ACG-RC2018-01.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
