| Description of the problem | While driving east on i-20 at about 70 mph, there was a loud popping sound. I subsequently noted a crack in the windscreen from the top center of the glass to just below the level of the mirror. There was no indication of impact damage and no objects were seen at the time of the crack. Over the course of the next several days the crack diverged and enlarged to an approximately circular crack in the region below the mirror. |
