| Description of the problem | I have received 3 chips one leading to a serious crack in my windshield all on the driver's side in less than 6 months of road time. This is my second jeep and my first never got a chip. I feel the windshield in my 2012 jeep rubicon is of inferior quality and needs to be looked into. I fear my safety if another rock hits this windshield. I have contacted jeep manufacture and filed complaints so it will be on file. It was recommended to go back to dealership and have them look at it and will do in near future but i wanted to file a complaint/concern with your agency too. I do not have much faith in the dealership as to making a resolve with this issue. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
