Consumer Description

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 2016 MAZDA CX-5. FIVE DAYS LATER, I WENT TO GET IN IT AFTER WORK (NOT A HOT DAY) AND FOUND A CRACK RUNNING FROM UNDER THE TOP SEAM STRAIGHT DOWN AND THEN FEATHERING OUT. NO IMPACT DAMAGE. PARKED IN A SECURED LOT. IT DIDN'T LOOK RIGHT, SO I LOOKED UP MAZDA WINDSHIELDS AND FOUND OUT OTHERS HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I FOUND THE CRACK DISTRACTING AS I DROVE, ESPECIALLY IF I NEEDED TO LOOK OVER TO THE RIGHT SIDE. TOOK MY CAR TO MAZDA THE FOLLOWING DAY. THEY AGREED IT LOOKED STRANGE, BUT SAID THEY WERE UNAWARE OF ANY WINDSHIELD ISSUES. AND YET I FOUND MANY OTHERS ON LINE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.
