Is this some sort of Jeep Easter egg that I'm the last to know about?

Those are from the suction cups that hold the glass during assembly.

More importantly, what cleaner do I need to use to remove them? Used window cleaner several times and they keep coming back.

I have them as well and glass cleaner won't do a thing so went to a solvent and they are still there.

Dealer problem next?

I haven’t tried yet, but I’m wondering in goo gone would remove the residue. I have the same thing on my windshield.

As mentioned they are from robotic suction cups that assemble the windshield to the vehicle at the plant. Nothing to worry about. After a couple of good Windex cleanings they'll be gone forever.

Your first replacement windshield will take care of the problem :giggle:
This is true. The great thing is those rings will be gone within a week.

I've had my JLUS since 1/23/18 and they are still there. I've tried different cleaners but nothing has worked.

I've noticed the same thing on mine. Glass cleaner didn't work. I used a mild solution of dish detergent and rubbed off with a straight edge razor blade. This is the same way they get your windows ready for window tinting.
Great picture Mike.

Have the marks shown up since you did this process? I’m curious if that works. Also do you feel the marks are on the inside or outside of the windshield? I appreciate the help.
