Description of the problem | While driving down the highway, a small pebble was kicked up from the car in front of us and bounced off our windshield. It left a tiny chip the size of a pinhead. We reported it immediately and took it for repair within two hours of the incident at safe lite. Two days later, there was a giant crack in the windshield. We brought it to the dealership for replacement at a cost of nearly $1000, $500 out of pocket. |
