Try this, hope it helps 

var text="All-Weather Floor Liner Package [installed_msrp]"

alert(text.replace(/\s*\[.*?\]\s*/g, ''));

This will also remove excess whitespace before and after the parentheses

JSFIDDLE

Thanks

You can use the javascript function string.replace

var text="All-Weather Floor Liner Package [installed_msrp]"
var myCleanedStr = text.replace(/(\[.*\])/g, "");
console.log(myCleanedStr); // Output is "All-Weather Floor Liner Package "

You may use a RegExp in conjucation with the replace function. Like this:

'All-Weather Floor Liner Package [installed_msrp]'.replace(/\[.*\]/g, '');
