Description of the problem | I had dropped my car off at the shop for a recall. On the drive home, when i was about 6 miles from the shop, i stopped at a traffic light. Suddenly my front window cracked from right above the rearview mirror down the center of the window and then over towards the driver's side. I've attached a photo of the crack. The shop reviewed their video of the work on the car and said they did not see anything that had struck the window. It was a very hot day and i had just turned my air conditioning up all the way right before the window cracked. The street i was on was a 4-lane county road. |
