Consumer Description

THERE HAVE BEEN REPEATED STRESS CRACKS IN THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE ON TWO OCCASSION EXPERIENCED THE SAME CRACK. IT STARTS UNDER THE SEAL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ABOUT 4" OFF OF THE BOTTOM, TRAVELLS OUT ABOUT TWO INCHES, TURNS TOWARDS THE TOP AND TRAVELLS TO THE SUN VISOR AREA. IT HAS NOT BEEN CAUSED BY A STRIKE TO THE WINDOW AND EACH CRACK IS ALMOST IDENTICAL IN SIZE AND LOCATION. IT LOOKS LIKE AN "L" IF VIEWED FROM THE EXTERIOR. I SUSPECT THAT THE BODY LACKS RIGIDITY AND IS THUS STRESSING THE GLASS AS IT FLEXS. IF THE CRACK WERE TO CONNECT TO THE TOP PORTION OF THE WINDOW, THE WINDSHIELD COULD FAIL. THE CAR IS A 2000 CHRYSLER 300M.*AK
