Consumer Description

WE WERE ON A HIGHWAY ACCESS ROAD, SLOWING FOR A TURN ONTO AN OVERPASS. A PIECE OF GRAVEL FROM A GRAVEL TRUCK HIT THE WINDSHIELD. WE WERE NOT FOLLOWING CLOSELY. WE DID NOT SEE THE GRAVEL. WITHIN SECONDS OF THE GRAVEL IMPACT, AND AS WE SLOWED AND TURNED ONTO THE OVERPASS, THE WINDSHIELD DEVELOPED AN OVER 20 INCH CRACK. WE HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD, WHICH COST US A $500 DEDUCTIBLE. GRAVEL TRUCKS ARE A FACT OF LIFE. ON ALL OF OUR OTHER CARS, WE HAVE HAD TO REPAIR WINDSHIELD ROCK CHIPS. THIS IS THE FIRST CAR WE'VE OWNED WHERE A PIECE OF GRAVEL RESULTED IN A REPLACED WINDSHIELD. THIS IS CONCERNING. *TR
