Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS CRACKS IN THE WINDSHIELD LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE FROM BOTH SIDES ON THE WIPER BLADES TRAILS. IT HAS NOT BEEN HIT BY A ROCK. I NOTICED IT ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHEN I WAS USING THE WIPERS ON RAINY DAYS. I WAS TOLD BY THE GLASS REPAIR SHOPS THAT IT WAS CAUSED DUE TO THE HEATED WIPERS WHILE IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN TO WORK THE CRACKS APPEARED TO TRAVEL LONGER ON THE WINDSHIELD.
