This bulletin is a supplement to the previous 1986 Windshield
Installation Procedure TSB, body number 032, Volume VIII, dated
08-22-86. In order to comply with FMVSS 212 – Windshield Retention and
FMVSS 216 – Roof Crush Resistance, the factory uses a Urethane adhesive
sealant with bonded strength of not less than 40 kilograms per square
centimeter or 569 pounds per square inch for certain bonded windshields
and rear windows on Toyota vehicles. A Urethane adhesive sealant of at
least equivalent strength must be used to maintain these retension and
roof crush standards when windshield glass replacements are performed by
either the dealer or an outside glass shop. Since the adhesive kits
listed in Toyota Repair Manuals are not available in the USA, this
bulletin is prepared in order to supply information regarding locally
available equivalent materials. (See Note 3 on page 3.) For more
detailed application information, see the attached “Urethane Adhesive
Sealant Applications for Toyota Models.” Be sure to follow the sealant
manufacturer’s instructions for best results
