WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open
or partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence

sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the
buffeting or open any window.
RADIO SIGNAL DEVICES ON
W
INDSHIELD — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with premium tint infrared
reflective glass (IRR). In the necessity of mounting devices
such as transponders, garage door openers, radar
detectors, or any other device that sends out a radio
signal, please refer to the allocated area on the
windshield. There is a small box located near the
passenger side of the mirror cover. The location is
identifiable by a slight discoloration in the glass due to the
removal of the IRR coating.
Metalized windshield coatings available on the Grand
Wagoneer can potentially disrupt RFID transmission/
reception depending on signal location or additional
interference, regardless of the provided deletion zone. In
the event that any RFID or signal interruption between a
vehicle mounted device (e.g. toll transponder) does not
function properly, you may need to consult with your toll
transponder company and may have to use an alternate
device such as a license plate attached toll transponder.
