NHTSA Complaint #10510883 — 2013 JEEP WRANGLER

3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY BRAND NEW JEEP I RECEIVED A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD AT A SPEED OF 40 MPH CITY DRIVING. I THINK IT WAS A SMALL STONE BY THE SOUND OF IMPACT. ONE MONTH AFTER THAT MY JEEP BEING 4 MONTHS OLD, I RECEIVED ANOTHER CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD WHILE FREEWAY DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 60 MPH, AGAIN I THINK A SMALL STONE HIT THE WINDSHIELD BY THE SOUND OF IMPACT. A MONTH LATER AND 5 MONTHS OLD I RECEIVED ANOTHER CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD WHILE CITY DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 45 MPH, AGAIN I THINK A SMALL STONE HIT THE WINDSHIELD BY THE SOUND OF IMPACT. MY JEEP MILEAGE ON THE FINAL CRACK AT 5 MONTHS WAS 8,400 MILES. I HAVE ONLY HEARD 3 STONES HIT MY WINDSHIELD, WITH EACH IMPACT MY WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED. THESE CRACKS ARE SEVERE WITH MINIMAL IMPACT AND OBSTRUCT VISIBILITY. THERE IS AN OBVIOUS ISSUE WITH THE QUALITY OF THE GLASS/WINDSHIELD IN MY JEEP. I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES WITHOUT RECEIVING ONE CRACKED WINDSHIELD UNDER THE EXACT DRIVING CONDITIONS OVER AN AVERAGE 5 YEAR VEHICLE OWNERSHIP. I CANNOT AFFORD OR BE EXPECTED TO REPLACE A WINDSHIELD EVERY MONTH AND THEREFORE THIS ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. *TR
