Has anyone else had their windshield crack? This one started at the very bottom at about center on the driver's side and arced about 12" flattening out and extending to the center of the windshield. It did not start from a rock or any other hit and appears to be in the outer layer of the laminated glass. Rough spot in edge? Bad mounting? Here in San Diego we don't get extremes of temperature. 30* max. Suggestions, inputs, info :(

My leaf also had a cracked windshield after 4 days. Dealer claimed it was a rock. When installer removed old windshield it became obvious that the problem started blow the cowl and could only have happened during installation. Because the dealer was too cheap to investigate a potential design flaw was not reported to Nissan.
