Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“A crack formed on the inside layer of the glass right where the driver's side convertible top latch in the frame is located. The dealer declared that this occurred as a result of an impact as opposed to stress from the frame and refused to correct it under the warranty. There was no sign of an exterior impact and the crack originated on the interior side of the glass. There is clearly a defect either in the construction of the windshield or in the manner in which the top latches to the frame, which caused the glass to crack .”
