| Description of the problem | While driving on the road a small pebble hit my windshield causing it the create a small crack. I had to get it filled since to replace to windshield would require calibrating the eye sight senors. Other normal derbies have hit my car on the roads to and has caused alot of scratching on the windshield. The windshield seems to be very thin or not that strong. When things to do hit the windshield i don't get the same feeling of safety i do in other cars. I get the feeling the windshield wont hold up to anything significant based on how fragile it feels and sounds when things hit it. |
