Do our Challengers, 2019 specifically, have passivated glass, IE, "Soft-Ray", "EZE-Cool", "Solar-Coat", or "Solar-Cool" rear windows?
Those that have metallic particles in the glass that prevent a glass mounted antenna from working.

Thanks Bull. However, with my limited knowledge of RF and such, it is my understanding that receiving is very different than transmiting through glass using a glass mount antenna.
If you are transmitting this way, check your VSWR and make it as low as possible...<2 is desirable as this is reflected signal. For receiving, unless it is a band that prone to signal degradation from barriers, you shouldn't really notice the loss as it would be minimal.
Appreciate the information.
Maybe I should clarify.
I'm going to install a pager theft alert in the car that transmits on 27MHz (a CB frequency), if I have a rear window with the "passivated glass" that is not compatible with a glass mount antenna I won't buy one. I will be forced to do a NMO mount in the trunk. NOOOOO!
