Details

What's wrong: Poor adhesion may occur between paint layers in the windshield mounting area due to defective paint batches or overspraying.

Why it matters: Paint separation in the windshield areas would leadto non-compliance with fmvss 212 retention requirements. Loss of windshieldretention ability could cause winshield to separate from vehicle without warningand harm vehicle occupants and others in the vicinity.

The fix: Reinstall windshield to insure proper retention.
