Details
What's wrong: Certain passenger vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 212, "windshield mounting." The windshields may potentially exhibit increased wind noise, water leakage, and squeaks and rattles.
Why it matters: Potential loss of windshield retention may also reduce occupant protection in the event of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace these windshields. Owner notification began on March 31, 2003.
