Description of the problem | While driving down the highway at 70 mph, the passenger side windshield flew off. Upon stopping and inspecting, the plastic slips that held it in place were broken. I checked the driver side, and the clips are starting to break on there as well, it is no longer attached at the top and it is only a matter of time that fails completely as well. I have attached pictures showing the passenger side that flew off and the driver side that is failing. |
