DESCRIPTION
Reports have been received from some areas that the studs bonded on the rear hatch glass peel off. This is caused by a difference in thermal expansion rates between the glass and the adhesive agent which bonds the stud to the glass. These studs are used as locators when the hatch glass is installed on the rear hatch frame. Therefore, the detachment of these studs should not be cause for alarm since this will not create a problem with the strength of the glass..
However, detachment of the studs can result in poor appearance in the shaded area of the glass. If you encounter this problem, please replace the rear hatch GLASS with a new modified one. The adhesive agent which bonds the studs has been changed on the new modified glass.
