REC-001185

active

2016–2017 Renault MEGANE IV

Category: Light Vehicle · Supplier: RVDA Pty Ltd

Recall date: 29 October 2020

Defect

The owner's manual window operation section contains an error in the wording and may cause the user to wrongly operate the child safety features on the rear door.

Hazard

The rear doors may be opened from the inside by a child in the back seat. This could increase the risk of injury and or death to vehicle occupants.

Remedy

The handbook requires the words 'and doors' to be blocked out with a black marker. Owners should contact their nearest Renault dealer as soon as possible to organise a suitable time to have the handbook amended while they wait. This will be free of charge.
