Description of the problem	While driving on the highway i heard the sound of small pebble hitting the windshield. (i did not see anything) the closest car was two lanes away and more to the side than in front. I discovered a dime size, star shaped, chip in the windshield. Within a few minutes two cracks were branching out from the chip about 1/2" in length. I took the car in the next day to have the chip repaired so it did not spread out further. I have driven many makes and models of vehicles in 35 years and i have never experienced this type of damage even when hit by something that was visibly larger. This is why i felt i needed to voice my complaint. I just purchased this vehicle less than two months ago and this is making me concerned whether it is safe to drive with a windshield this fragile. I feel this will happen again. Before this incident, i loved my vehicle but now i wonder if i should keep it. What other materials are inferior? Is it safe? What will happen if i get stuck in a minor hail storm? In my opinion, there is no way this windshield could pass any safety test for strength or impact resistance. I just hope that my complaint along with the others will soon be enough to trigger an investigation and we can get a proper windshield.
