| Description of the problem | While driving i heard a very loud bang and immediately saw the windshield was cracked. There was no traffic or vehicles in front of me on the local highway traveling at 55 mph. The bang startled me so bad i started to swerve into the other lane. When i reached my destination i was surprised to see how long the crack extended. I took the camera off the windshield to get pictures of the full extent of the crack. |
