ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a corner region between the lateral and rear roof frame of a motor vehicle having a rear door, and to a method for producing it. In order to improve the absorption of mechanical forces acting on the body shell in the roof region in a simple manner, it is proposed to form the corner region from shell-shaped components of the rear roof frame and a D-pillar of the motor vehicle and from a hollow profile formed by internal high pressure, the components and the hollow profile being connected nonreleasably to one another. The hollow profile is designed as a junction component which, with a first, open end, is connected to the D-pillar, with a closed neck aligned with the first, open end, is connected to the shell components of the lateral roof frame and, with a second, open end which is angled away from the longitudinal section of the hollow profile, which extends from the first, open end beyond the neck, is connected to the components of the rear roof frame.
