TechTip: Some vehicles may exhibit a condition in which the front corner mounting point of the side shield would separate from the lower frame assembly. This condition may occur when the customer enters or exits the vehicle and significant downward pressure is placed directly on the seat cushion shield. This condition could also potentially show a significant gap at the top of the shield to the cushion, or complete separation from either the front or rear retainer/engagement points.
T-SB-0044-16_Rev2018-04-02. Service bulletin. STRUCTURE:BODY. TSB: REVISION NOTICE March 07, 2017 Rev1: ? Applicability has been updated to include 2017 model year Toyota vehicles. On some vehicles, when Rapgard? is removed the paint may have a stained appearance. These stains appear to be under the clear coat (repainting this area is NOT necessary). The stain patterns are usually under wrinkles in the Rapgard?. These wrinkles sometimes trap water and cause the paint to stain from the trapped moisture, especially on horizontal surfaces, such as the hood, roof, and trunk. Stains can be removed by heating the stained surface to remove the trapped moisture.
