Consumer Description

WE WERE DRIVING ON I5 NORTH WHEN I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD. WITHIN 30 MINUTES IT SPREAD TO A CRACK LARGER THAN A DOLLAR BILL. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS A BRAND NEW 2020 CAR THAT I PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2019. PRIOR TO THIS VEHICLE, I OWNED A SUBARU WHICH ALSO GOT A RANDOM CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY NO LARGE TRUCKS KICKING UP GRAVEL/ROCKS AROUND. .
