Glad you made the trip safely.... if I had to guess the 3M tape failed because it was too cold when you installed it and when you got to the US Border the sun warmed the adhesive up again causing it to pull away from the glass.
Cool that Dave helped you get it back on.

agreed with that..i had heaters on my windshield before i installed it, but i was cold in the car and warm out side....it seems to be holding up...but i still need to order some more rivots.
