## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain model year 2014 Transit Connect vehicles manufactured October 4, 2013, to July 14, 2014 and equipped with a Panoramic Fixed\-Glass Vista roof.  The panoramic roof panel may have an inadequate bond to the vehicle, possibly resulting in the panel separating from the vehicle.


## What can happen

If the panoramic roof panel separates from the vehicle while it is being driven, it may increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will remove, clean, and reinstall the panoramic roof panel, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on January 21, 2022.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 16S35.
