THIS IS A VERY THANKFUL COMPLIMENT, NOT A COMPLAINT. ON 20 FEBRUARY 2020, A 30-LB METAL DISK FLEW OFF A DRYWALL FLATBED TRUCK IN THE LANE LEFT OF ME AS WE TRAVELED TOGETHER AT 45 MPH ON A COLORADO SPRINGS MAIN STREET. THE DISK DIRECTLY HIT THE LEFT SIDE OF THE 2019 ACURA MDX SH WINDSHIELD AND SMALL SHARP GLASS SHARDS FLEW THROUGH THE CABIN. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE WINDSHIELD PLASTIC FILM, THE DISK WOULD HAVE BROKEN THROUGH THE GLASS AND PROBABLY HIT ME IN THE HEAD KILLING ME (THE DISK HAD A LOT OF VELOCITY WHEN IT HIT WITH A VERY LOUD THUD ? NO TIME TO SWERVE). I AM VERY GRATEFUL FOR THIS PLASTIC FILM ? IT WAS DISTORTED, BUT NO HOLE THANKFULLY. COST TO REPAIR ABOUT $6,500, BUT I AM ALIVE AND NOT INJURED. *TR
