| Description of the problem | There was a mildly hot day in revere ma in 10/24 almost 80 and got cold at night around 40. Next day we get in the vehicle and notice something like a crack in the middle of the windshield but at the moment we thought it was just dirt. In 10/27 we notice that it was a real crack in the middle of the windshield when cleaning the vehicle, right where the defroster blows. Crack is definitely not due from road debris, not rock chips around the crack at all. |
