Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The windshield spontaneously cracked about 18 inches from the passenger side toward the rear view mirror with nothing hitting the windshield. Apparently it is a stress fracture in the glass that has been widely reported and should be claimed as a defect. The vehicle was parked when the crack occurred.”
NHTSA complaint #10818966, filed 2016-01, 28,000 miles“This is not an incident report, but rather a general inquiry as to whether or not there have been an unusually large number of cracked windshields reported by other Nissan owners or repairmen. The new Nissan I purchased appears to have a windshield design that lends itself to stress cracks easily!

NHTSA complaint #10588372, filed 2014-05, 500 miles“While driving in temperatures under 40 degrees the interior windows fog within minutes of being in the car when the heat is on. Turning on defrost and opening the windows does not help. I've had to pull over numerous times to prevent a car accident because the visibility is so bad. The problem seems to be worse at night, but does happen during the day too. When the windows appear to be clear and the car is left outside for at least 30 minutes, whatever moisture is left in the car freezes to the inside of all the windows creating a layer of ice. …”
