Details

What's wrong: The glove compartment door will not remain closed during certain load forces associated with a vehicle crash. This does not comply with the requirements of fmvss 201.

Why it matters: In the event of an accident, the glove compartment doormay open and result in occupant(s) injuries from contact with the glovecompartment door.

The fix: Replace the current upper glove compartment door with a redesigned upper glove compartment door which incorporates a positive latch to keep the door closed should a vehicle crash occur.
