Consumer Description

WINDSHIELD HAS MANUFACTURE DEFECTS. OPTICAL DISTORTIONS APPEAR IN MULTIPLE, IF NOT THE ENTIRE WINDSHEILD. DEALER DISCRIBED THEM AS NORMAL AND THAT EVERY OTHER WINDSHIELD IN THE DAKOTA AND DURANGO LINE HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS...ER CHARACTER. I WAS ASKED TO GET USE TO THE DISTORTION, BUT CANNOT.
