@FCA: JPP Introduces New, Industry-leading Gorilla Glass Replacement Windshield

July 12, 2021 , Windsor, Ontario – Jeep® Performance Parts (JPP) by Mopar is expanding its industry-leading Gorilla Glass replacement windshield offerings to include the latest Jeep Wrangler (JL) and Jeep Gladiator (JT) models.

“Out on the trail or on a daily commute, windshield damage can happen anywhere at any time,” said Mark Bosanac, North America Vice President, Mopar Service, Parts & Customer Care. “Our proven, quality-tested JPP replacement windshields made with Gorilla Glass offer hard-core Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator owners additional protection and a factory warranty.”

The new JPP windshield made with Corning Gorilla Glass uses the same chemical-strengthening technology as cell phone screens. Mopar’s combination of an ultra-thin Gorilla Glass inner ply with a 52% thicker outer ply makes this windshield lightweight and durable, offering superior resistance to chips, cracks and fractures from stones and off-road debris that hard-core Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator owners are likely to encounter.

Backing the added strength of the Gorilla Glass is a two-year limited (from date of install), unlimited-mile warranty from Mopar. The replacement windshield features the original Jeep branding “Easter eggs” along with the Gorilla Glass brand’s signature gorilla head artwork.

In partnership with Corning, Mopar was the first to launch a mass-market windshield replacement program for an OEM when patented Gorilla Glass became available for the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler (JK) models in April 2018.

Later this summer, JPP Gorilla Glass windshield replacement offerings will also be available for Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Gladiator models equipped with additional options, including a forward-facing camera, a camera-surround heater and/or an embedded antenna.

The new replacement windshields made with Gorilla Glass are now available for purchase in the U.S. and Canada. Offerings with Mopar part number, National Auto Glass Specifications (NAGS) identification and Canadian manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) include:  

2018 – 2021 Jeep Wrangler (JL) and Jeep Gladiator (JT):
