Affected Component: EQUIPMENT

Summary
SOME 2015-2017 TRANSIT HIGH ROOF WAGON VEHICLES BUILT ON OR AFTER 2-JUN-2015 MAY HAVE BEEN SHIPPED WITH A HEADLINER PANEL THAT WAS NOT PROPERLY SEATED, CAUSING A GAP AT THE C AND/OR C 1/2 PILLAR(S). IN MOST CASES THE CONDITION CAN BE RESOLVED BY REMOVING THE ASSOCIATED PILLAR TRIM PANEL, CAREFULLY SEATING THE HEADLINER PILLAR TAB TO THE PILLAR BLOCK, AND WHILE HOLDING THE HEADLINER IN PLACE, REINSTALLING THE PILLAR TRIM PANEL. HEADLINER PILLAR TAB DAMAGE SHOULD BE REPAIRED WITH SERVICE KIT EK4Z-6151916-A. VISUAL INSPECTION IS ADEQUATE FOR THIS CONDITION, WHILE PHYSICAL TUGGING OR PRYING MAY DAMAGE AN OTHERWISE ACCEPTABLE CONNECTION. HEADLINER RETENTION IN THESE AREAS IS INTENTIONALLY DELICATE TO ALLOW FOR PROPER AIR CURTAIN DEPLOYMENT. DO NOT FABRICATE ALTERNATIVE HEADLINER ATTACHMENT METHODS.
