Description of the problem | The windshield cracked within 3 days of purchasing the car as brand new. I didn't hear a rock hitting it and i can't see an impact pattern. I woke up one morning and the crack was over a foot and it spread from there into multiple cracks. There was no chance to get the windshield repaired at all and it needed to be replaced but i don't have the 1300 dollars that the dealer is saying it takes to get it replaced and they claim it was a rock and not a defect which i'm disputing. |
