| Description of the problem | Front windshield seems to be easily damaged. I initially thought it was just another pebble but when it happen again while i was driving down my neighborhood street i realized something was wrong. I think the problems i'm having with a whistling noise that's heard while driving which points to a seal problem are associated. When a windshield is not properly fitted it can lead to the glass being more sensitive to damage. My dealer would not fix the seal until i replaced the windshield until i pointed out they are associated. |
