Allright,
I have only had Pam for 3 weeks and today a rock flew up and cracked the windshield. Is this a dealer problem, or can any auto windshield repair place fix it? I called Bob Smith and they said a rain sensor windshield is different. It si going to cost ..... lots the windshield is 350 plus the rubber moulding, plus labor..... feels like 500-600. ouch

 

That's a shame. I have a small crack since last summer. Since it stayed small and clear, I've left it be.

My Expedition got a crack in year 2. The very day the new windshield was installed, a rock hit it again on the way home, leaving a small chip right in my normal view of the road. It's year 9, chip still there 'cuz I am not going through that again!

I thought I heard some dealers have replaced windshields under warranty? Or you may need to utilize your insurance. Damage is damage.

 

if you dig far enough back, someone mentioned that the
rain sensor that ppg glass uses for the bmw also works
with the mini windshield.

good luck

 

Windshields are replaced on due to stress cracks, not rocks.

the rock was about 3/4 of an inch and hit just under the wiper. now on the way home the crack has gone from the wiper all the way to the top of the windshield, on the passenger side...... long crack.... getting longer
