NHTSA Complaint #10155323 — 2003 CHEVROLET VENTURE

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS LEAKING. IT IS CAUSED BY NOT HAVING STOPS IN PLACE THAT KEEPS THE WINDSHIELD FROM SLIDING OUT OF PLACE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. WE FOUND THAT WE HAD LEAK DURING A RAIN STORM. I HAD ANOTHER CARS WINDSHIELD REPLACED AND ASKED THE REPLACEMENT COMPANY TO RESEAL THE WINDSHIELD ON MY CHEVY VENTURE. THEY STATED TO ME THAT IT WAS A KNOWN DEFECT BY CHEVY AND THEY WOULD NOT RESEAL IT BECAUSE THE WINDSHIELD WILL SLIDE OUT OF PLACE AGAIN CAUSING A LEAK OR WORSE DURING AN ACCIDENT. MY WORK AS PARAMEDIC I HAVE SEEN WINDSHIELD DISPLACE , INWARD AND OUTWARD. DOES SOMEBODY HAVE TO BE HURT OR DEATH CAUSED BEFORE A RECALL TAKES PLACE ? IF CHEVY KNOWS THAT THIS IA A PROBLEM WHY NOT FIX IT ? *JB
