Had my car under 6 months, walked out one day, happened to be our first fairly warm day since I purchased my car in the winter, and had a crack in the middle of the windshield. Took it to Ford dealer and Adviser lifted the windshield wiper and said there was a rock chip. How do you get a rock chip under the wiper blade that is flush with the hood? Said they couldn't do anything about it. Rudest service dept I have ever dealt with.
After further research sounds like a stress crack that could lead to a spot of glass popping out that looks like a chip. I guess if enough people start complaining maybe Ford will start looking at it differently. Guess we have to replace on our dime!

Cracked for no reason; could have been tension or debris behind the windshield prior to replacing the glass. I didn't get hit by flying gravel or debris; showed up at work and saw this crack... thought something was on the windshield. called insurance company and they sent out safe lite to replace it.
