Service bulletin PS290R1

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

SUCTION CUP RESIDUE ON WINDSHIELD - RESIDUE FROM INSTALLATION OF THE GLASS MAY CAUSE THE APPEARANCE OF CIRCULAR MARKINGS, IN THE SHAPE OF SUCTION CUPS, TO APPEAR ON THE SURFACE OF THE GLASS (EXAMPLE SHOWN BELOW). THIS CONDITION IS MORE APPARENT WHEN CONDENSATION OCCURS ON THE GLASS AND THE MOISTURE EVAPORATES AT DIFFERENT RATES. TO CORRECT THIS CONDITION, SPRAY RUBBING ALCOHOL OVER THE AFFECTED GLASS SURFACE. THEN, WIPE THE SURFACE WITH A CLOTH. IF THE MARKINGS ARE STILL EVIDENT, CONTINUE SPRAYING RUBBING ALCOHOL OVER THE MARKING(S) AND WIPING WITH THE CLOTH UNTIL ALL MARKINGS ARE REMOVED FROM THE SURFACE. NOTE: DO NOT REPLACE ANY GLASS SURFACE OVER THIS CONCERN
