Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Numerous windsheild chips in less than 12,000 miles. i have never had a vehicle with a windshield that chips so easily. the smallest of debris will result in a significant chip. the windsheild has to be too weak. how can the windshield protect you when it is so weak. the first chip happened at about 800 miles another at about 8000 miles and the last at 11000 miles. the first one was "repaired" the next morning. but it is now spidering.
