Information on Removing Protective Film Bumper Covers Upon Delivery of Vehicle (PDI)

This bulletin is being issued to inform dealers to remove the protective film bumper covers from the vehicle upon delivery. These protective film covers are used for transit purposes only. These protective film covers may be found on the front bumper corners and rear bumper corners (if the vehicle is equipped with a rear bumper).

These protective film bumper covers should be removed before the vehicle is stored. If the film covers are not removed and left in the sunlight, the adhesive backing on the film cover could transfer to the bumper surface.

1. Remove the protective film cover in one continuous motion in order to reduce the amount of adhesive material left behind.
2. Clean the area with a 50/50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water (or alcohol wipe) to remove any adhesive.
