Consumer Description

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE DEC 2014. I HAVE REPLACED 2 WINDSHIELDS AND HAD 2 OTHER ROCK-CHIPS FILLED. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS THINGS ON TESLA BLOGS REGARDING MULTIPLE WINDSHIELD CRACKS & CHIPS FROM OTHER OWNERS. I JUST HAD ONE TODAY DUE TO A SMALL ROCK WHERE I WAS 2 CAR LENGTHS BACK ON THE INTERSTATE. I RECALL ONLY 2 OTHER WINDSHIELD REPAIR/REPLACEMENTS ON MY CARS SINCE 2001.
