Description of the problem | I was driving down the highway that wasn't very busy (around 12:30 pm) and all of a sudden i hear a slight crack noise. I look around and i see a crack appeared on the passenger side of my windshield. While driving, it was growing longer. I don't understand how or where it came from but i am scared that it is going to get larger as the day and week continues. No debris nor large dump truck was near me. This crack happened too easily and has me questionable about my windsheild. I don't understand how something so little is turning into something so large and can potentially become dangerous. |
