Each campaign in detail

  1. Recall: rear spoiler poorly bonded

    Manufacturer recall

    T-Rocs built between 29 January and 12 June 2018 are concerned by recall 66J9: the bonded join between the two parts of the rear spoiler is defective and the upper part can come loose and fall onto the road. Check that the recall has been carried out using the VIN number.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
