Description of the problem	Spontaneous crack in windshield we have purchased this vehicle used in 2088 and have replace the windshield each year of ownership from a spontaneous crack in the windshield. We windshield will be whole when parked and the next morning it will have a crack which originates in the bottom center of the windshield. I have changed glass companies multiple times thinking that it was installation issues but the spontaneous crack in windshield continues to happen. We are on windshield #6 of our ownership of this vehicle. Poor windshield wiper design. We live in the northeast where we experience a long snowy winter and the wipers ice up and causes us to stop every 5-10 miles to clean them off. As you can imagine this is a very dangerous practice with traffic ie: snowplows and semis traveling the roads and a person standing beside their vehicle exposed.
