I dont want to do it either. No wind noise , no water leaks so why should I do it?
Because since you're not Superman, you lack the ability to know if your windshield is properly attached. Since the windshield is an integral part of the safety restraint system in the car, and provides a good portion of the structural integrity of the cabin, you don't want to find out it's not properly attached when it matters.

What role does my windshield play to ensure my safety in an accident?
The windshield provides a significant amount of strength to the structural support in the cabin of the vehicle. For instance, in a front end collision the windshield provides up to 45% of the structural integrity of the cabin of the vehicle and in a rollover, up to 60%.
Think about that for just a moment. How would you like for over half of the force of a collision to be absorbed by YOU because your windshield flew out in an accident? It happens more times than most of us are aware.
The windshield is an integral part of the safety restraint system in your car. It keeps the roof from crushing in on you in a rollover, it allows the airbags to deploy in the correct position to cushion passengers, and prevents you and your family from being ejected in a serious collision. It’s important to your family’s safety that the automotive glass in your vehicle be installed properly.

The Blue cruise usable time frame updates in 6 month intervals inside the sync screen apparently. Mine went from March 22 to September 22 after yesterday's BC update.

Wow. I had no idea. I will definitely get the recall done. Thanks for the info.

21G01 says in part “or the option of complimentary dealer installation in Q1”.

6 weeks left in Q1…. It’s starting to seem unlikely that date will be hit.

Updates will "begin" then, no mention of when they'll all be completed...
Remember that the update apparently consists of several OTAs, so they can meet this target date if they get one of those OTAs pushed out to one job 1 vehicle by March 31.
