Cooper

  • 75,000 miles
Shocked to find an 8-inch hairline crack to the upper right portion of my windshield (right above my eyes on driver's side). The windshield glass spontaneously cracked on the exterior, with zero evidence of impact, harsh weather or temperature changes. It's been 60 degrees for weeks now and my MINIhad been safely parked, outside of my home. I researched this issue and found multiple complaints from MINIcustomers with the same problem. I will be taking legal action against MINIfor their disregard for my own and public safety. Shame on the NHTSA for settling with MINIon charges of sub-par glass installed in MINICooper hatchback models until 2008, a few months before my '09 MINIwas produced.
