Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My front windshield has cracked due to stress and temperature. The automaker is trying to claim that the break is due to stone impact. This is not true. The vehicle was sitting in a parking lot for two weeks and it was very hot. When I went to the vehicle it was cracked. Also when a stone impacts the windshield it will leave a spider fracture and there is not spider fracture on this vehicle.”
