What's wrong, in plain English
On some Bronco and Bronco Heritage models, the rear quarter glass panels may not have been installed correctly onto the hard top. Because of this, the panels can come loose and detach from the vehicle while it is being driven. A glass panel that comes off creates a hazard on the road for other drivers and increases the chance of a crash.
