Argh.......cracked windshield
 
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced a cracked windshield.
This was not caused by a rock or any other foreign object introducing itself rudely to the glass. No, the crack justed appeared.
I live in CA, so this is the first time that I had to use my defroster and viola a cracked windshield.
Going to the dealer tomorrow.

outside of the glass is smooth, no sign of impact...

Speaking from experience, a small crack in the windshield can become huge when you turn on the defroster. I had the same experience on another car of mine.

Count yourself lucky, some poor sap with an RX-8 in the garage at my apartments has a huge smash in his passenger side. Hate to know how that happened ;)

I just noticed a very fine line crack emanting from the top of the windshield, just a little to the left of the mirror mount. Is this the pattern? Are any dealers agreeing to pay for fixing it?

Thanks for the link, nice to go to the dealer with ammo.
