Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Honda element windshield cracked spontaneously within a few months of purchase from the bottom edge of the windshield up. came out one morning and there was the crack. no rock impact as the dealer alleged! they jammed a sharp pen into the crack, and said, look, this was caused by a rock, & refused to repair it. criminal, if you ask me! many other element owners have reported this same problem to me. also, the windshield was prone to attracting rock & pebble off the roads, a separate issue from that common cracking problem. it's a dangerous flaw that honda needs to address and repair. a recall is in order!*ak |
