Just saw this in my app too, the .pdf won’t open.

evidently, it's just instructions for putting the windows in properly.

Out of curiosity, what exactly are people doing to put them in improperly? Seems like a fairly self-explanatory operation.

So, is this just JLs with soft tops? I have ONLY a hard top and I still got the V88 campaign notice in my app. FCA, get your crap together.

You'd be surprised how many dog-eared JKU rear windows I've seen... lots of rookies.

It looks like it's just an addendum to the owners manual, so they all probably get it.

Just covering their " backside".... There were several threads about rear windows blowing out on highways..... Could have been due to improperly installed side windows ?
They are probably getting tired of replacing windows under warranty, and this will get them out of that situation. I personally have had a couple issues in higher winds, when I really thought I was going to lose a window. But they
held in place, wife was terrified due to the noise they made...

A lot of people that ONLY have hard tops bought factory soft tops later, especially when the dual top wasn't an option. It's a Stretch, but think beyond your immediate Self.

Anyone have pics on exactly what they're claiming to as the problem and solution(s)?

I factory ordered a hard top only, but bought the twill factory top off of craigslist. I’m glad they are sending it to me!

What it sounds like is basically the “instructions” on how to install the window. I played with my soft top the other day and the rear quarters can look installed but aren’t seated in the top bracket properly, yet they’ll still fit in the lower clip.

basically FCA issuing an ID 10 T addendum.

Just had my hard top JLU in for another warranty service and they "fixed" that recall. They attached about 4 pages of quarter window instructions for the soft top ( which i don't have) to the repair order and show it as fixed?? So am I to understand my dealer repaired a recall for soft top JL's with my hard top? Either the fix was to provide me with instructions for the rear quarter window for a soft top or my dealer is getting reimbursed for fixing a recalled part that i don't have....

As posted above it’s more an addendum to the original instructions should you ever get a soft top in the future. It’s like instructions for an option you can add after the fact.

Personally I don’t see how the installation can be messed up, so I’m curious to see the updated instructions.

Would you mind posting photos of the instructions? The PDF in the app just says that they will send them, it’s not the instructions themselves.

I went in to the Mopar app to see the recall notice and saw that they now have instructional videos. I was curious to see the official video on the soft top quarter windows and guess what...it’s for a JK lol
