If any discrepancy is found or if any bolt is not tightened, do the actions specified in paragraph (h) of this AD before further flight. Repeat the detailed inspection thereafter at intervals not to exceed 50 flight cycles until the modification required by paragraph (h) of this AD is done. (1) For airplanes identified as Group 1 in Embraer Alert Service Bulletin 145LEG-53-A032, Revision 01, dated September 24, 2013, on which the actions of Embraer Service Bulletin 145LEG-53-0021, has been done: Do the detailed inspection within 3,000 flight cycles after accomplishment of the actions of Embraer Service Bulletin 145LEG-53-0021, or within 50 flight cycles after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later.

Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by reports of failure of the bolts that connect the cockpit windshield center-post to the forward fuselage. We are issuing this AD to prevent failed bolts and failed attaching parts of the cockpit windshield center-post, which could lead to loss of structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.
