IF THE WINDSHIELD MASK IS NOT ANGLED CORRECTLY, THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD COULD COME OUT OF THE RUBBER MOULDING, ALLOWING THE WINDSHIELD GLASS TO SHIFT BACK APPROXIMATELY ONE INCH. THIS MOVEMENT MAY OCCUR SUDDENLY, POSSIBLY DISTRACTING THE DRIVER AND AFFECTING HIS ABILITY TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
