Patriot 4-cyl

  • 1,000 miles
Got in the vehicle - started it up - heard a funny (well, not really funny) noise and watched a crack appear (and grow right in front of my eyes) in the lower right side of the windshield. Did some searching on the internet and found other people having the same problem. This was not caused by a rock or foreign object - it happened right in front of my eyes. This could have been a real problem if it had happened while driving.
