| Description of the problem | Thus far in two years of service my vehicle has had four windshields replaced due to cracks. Cracks were from stones thrown from other vehicles while jeep was being driven on highway. I have done some research and there are many, many other jeep owners having the same problems. An installer from safelight auto glass told me the windshields are being made much lighter to help reduce the weight of the vehicle. There are so many windshields breaking the last i heard there were 4000 oem on back order. The only choice is to get a non oem installed to get the vehicle back on the road. Never in over 50 years of driving have i had four windshields broken from stones. Problem is costing insurance companies and individual's a lot of money. |
