| SSM 48130 | 2019-09-06. Service bulletin. VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR; VISIBILITY. Some 2010-2020 vehicles may exhibit distorted glass with a subtle orange peel pattern or streaking etched into the surface. This is caused by hydrofluoric acid which is used in some car wash solutions as a cleaning agent. Hydrofluoric acid can attack the glass and cause visual distortion and/or discoloration on the outer surface which cannot be removed by further cleaning. If this type of distortion is found, inspect the area of the glass that is covered by the cowl and/or molding. The portion of glass that is covered by the cowl or molding will not be affected by the acid. Hydrofluoric acid damage is not a defect in material or workmanship and is not a warrantable condition. |

| SSM 46092 | 2017-08-01. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL; VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD; STRUCTURE:BODY:ROOF AND PILLARS. Some 2016 F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit multiple SYNC symptoms such as Bluetooth and/or voice recognition being inoperative and a key off current draw that could be related to a water leak from the windshield A-pillar area on the passenger side. This condition is evidenced by signs of water, moisture, or corrosion at the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) connector. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 415-00 for APIM access. If a windshield water leak is identified, follow updated WSM, Section 501-11 for repairs and reseal the windshield. Use causal part 2503100 and applicable labor operations in Section 12 of the SLTS manual. If the water leak source is not the windshield refer to WSM, Section 501-00 Body System, General Information, Dust and Water leaks diagnosis. |
