Toyota recalled Verso vehicles built between 11 February 2009 and 3 March 2011. The panoramic roof glass might partially peel from the frame due to insufficient adhesion strength of the paint on the panoramic roof frame. The dealer will inspect and replace if needed. You won't usually pay for it.1

What’s Wrong

The panoramic roof glass might partially peel from the frame due to insufficient adhesion strength of the paint on the panoramic roof frame. In this condition the roof glass might separate from the frame which could lead to wind noise. If the vehicle is continuously operated the panoramic roof glass may detach from the frame.
