I noticed that one of my fog lights had cracked. I took it back to the dealer. There he said that glass is not covered by warranty. That if I want it fixed I would have to pay for it myself. I went to another dealer. He fixed it for me covered under warranty. Well I got back home and the light was cracked again. The very same pattern of cracks as the first. That is why I think it is a stress cracks. The dealer said that he does not believe that stress crack occurs fast.
