The problem
Operation of sunroof in "non-standard" manner may cause male hinge disengagement from the roof hinge receiver.
The risk
The sunroof glass could detach from the roof and result in injury to occupants or persons in the vicinity, especially if this occurs while the vehicle is in motion.
The fix
Replace male hinge with a modified version to increase roof hinge receiver retention ability.
