| Description of the problem | Windshield cracked due to an unknown reason. 13" crack in the center of the windshield starting at the base. Vehicle was stationary. My only speculation is that snow covered the windshield during the night and the sun heated the interior of the vehicle in the morning causing an abrupt temperature stress on the glass. Defective windshield. |
