OUR WINDSHIELD HAS CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR OUT FOR LUNCH - NO DAMAGE. THEN HE WENT BACK OUT LATER THAT AFTERNOON AND THERE WAS A LARGE CRACK. EVEN IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO HIT THE CAR (WHICH WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE SO MINOR THAT HE DIDN'T NOTICE), IT SHOULD NOT HAVE IMMEDIATELY CRACKED LIKE THIS. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE.

MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND OFF, PARKED AT MY HOME. AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK THAT AFTERNOON, I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD. THIS CRACK WAS NOT THERE AFTER I FINISHED RUNNING AN ERRAND THAT MORNING. IT HAD TO HAVE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN USE AND STATIONARY. THERE IS NO CRACK OR CHIP TO INDICATE ANY IMPACT WITH ANY EXTERNAL OBJECT. THE CRACK ORIGINATES AT THE BOTTOM CORNER WHERE THE WINDSHIELD MEETS THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. (PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTO) THIS INDICATES TO ME, A FACTORY DEFECT. TO CLARIFY, I PLACED TAPE ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD TO MARK THE END OF THE CRACK. THIS IS NOT TO BE CONFUSED AS A CHIP OR MARK OF IMPACT.
