NHTSA Complaint #10545041 — 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA

NISSAN SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL! I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA (LESS THAN 2 MONTHS OLD) AND I WAS AT A DRIVE THRU WAITING FOR MY FOOD WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED. THE CRACK IS VERY LARGE AND IT'S ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD BY THE PASSENGER SEAT. NOTHING EVEN HIT THE WINDSHIELD TO CAUSE IT TO CRACK AND I HAD A PASSENGER IN THE CAR AT THE TIME THIS OCCURRED TO CONFIRM THAT. I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TO REPLACE A WINDSHIELD OF A CAR I JUST BOUGHT LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AGO. I'M ACTUALLY SCARED TO REPLACE IT BECAUSE I DON'T WANT THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. IF YOU GOOGLE "ALTIMA WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO REASON" YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM ALTIMA OWNERS ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEAR. HOWEVER, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RESOLVE IT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE TO SEE IF THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT IS CAUSING EXTRA STRESS ON THE WINDOW. I'VE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A WINDSHIELD OR HAVE SEEN ONE CRACK RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WITHOUT ANYTHING STRIKING IT. UPDATED 10/22/13 *CN UPDATED 10/29/13*CN
