[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My car is less than two weeks old, has 300 miles on it, and today I have a 3 inch simple crack in the windshield, down near the bottom.  I think it's from hard snow, ice, or ice pellet blowing off someone's car.

I went to an auto glass company and the guy came out, looked at the car and said I'd need a new windshield.  So that's question one -- do you smell rip-off?  He then opines that a small pebble hit the windshield.  I told him this was a brand new car and he then recommended that before calling the insurer I go back to the dealership and complain that this was a "stress fracture."

Question two -- is this something that could conceivably have happened?  Is this totally out of bounds?  I don't really know how to proceed here.  Any advice is welcome.[/quote]

If yu have a new car then yuor car is definitely under arranty.  Why on earth didn't you take it to the dealer initially?  You can get a huge ticket for a cracked windshield so I would have it replaced immediately.[/quote]
