Description of the problem | Spontaneous crack started in the middle of the windshield right behind the rearview mirror. There was no debris that hit the windshield. The crack is growing and we are told that warranty does not handle windshield cracks. We have to pay $250 insurance deductible and there is a 4-6 month delay on getting the new glass because of backlog...! This is now a safety issue because it inhibits our visibility and who knows what may happen if there is a crash of any kind! |
