Volkswagen Australia is recalling 67 of its Polo hatchbacks as the sunroof could detach and cause an accident.

The issue affects MY21 vehicles only.

Due to a manufacturing issue, the sunroof frame may not have been bonded correctly to the body and could become loose and fall off the vehicle – posing serious risk of serious injury or death to vehicle occupants or other road users.
