Probably something left in during window install? How long has it been there? Dealer didn’t remove it?

Purely an educated guess here, but I bet it’s there for protection during transport from the factory to the dealer. Both train cars and transport trucks are not known for their smooth rides, so this could be there to stop the glass from banging into the roof during the rough ride, potentially causing a crack to form. Those pieces look like they’d cost under a penny to manufacture, so cheap insurance policy to prevent FCA from having to replace an expensive piece of glass. Should’ve been taken out by the dealer upon arrival, though.

Yep - mine had yellow ones; 2 on top and bottom, 1 each on the sides of each side window. I test drove it prior to being prepped. After prep they were all gone.
