Do you drive it more often? How about in worse weather conditions?

Mine suffered a pebble attack from a dump truck that blew by on a busy rainy day in 1998 in Michigan. It sounded like a shot and took a nick out, but it has not spread to this day, even though I now live in Florida and it gets the full heat every day.

On the other hand I replaced my Ranger windshield in January due to a rock hit and subsequent cracking. Then in February another highway pebble hit it and it is cracking again. Luck of the damned draw, I guess.

Yeah, the cars I have been in that rocks have hit the windshield, they have all been like gun shots. One of the loudest things I have ever heard.

Well, the windshield it had when I bought it was deffinitly from the factory. It had a large crack along the bottom running the entire length of the glass. The replacement from that looks identical to me, though I'm no glass expert. I've had a couple of Maximas and and they were pretty low as far as height goes, but I never had the first problem with them. I guess I'm just a little sore cuz I'm going on my third windsheild in less than a month. Oh well, I'll just hope it doesn't spread.

Our 98 Yukon has had 4 or 5 replaced. One in MN wasn't done right, so they had to pull the glass, strip the roof and repaint it.

EDIT: My 93 looks to be on OEM glass, and it'* pitted to hell, i have glass coverage, but do you think it'* broken yet?

Sounds like me. All that lovely sand in the winter does a number on them, but do you think I could get someone to actually break it?? I ain't brave enopugh to break it myself and hope they don't figure it out.

But, 3 windshields in a month? Personally, I would look at driving habits. Without knowing what'* going on in the least, the first thing that pops into my head is "following too closely".

But, it could just be a run of bad luck. Who knows....

if I was closer I would solve that for you

Well, this morning there wasn't anyone ahead of me for at least 8 or 9 car lengths. And more importantly, there were no trucks or any kind. Although, I was very near the airport, perhaps one of those blue bricks or poo gave me a direct hit.

I look at each of my cars and notice a pattern on the hood of sand blasting and rock chips. Add that to a couple of windows..

yup..I think I prolly follow at the right distance for rock flight.

My Bonnie is on its third windshield, and it needs a fourth. We have limestone quarries around here and trucks carry the stuff back and forth on the highways to a local concrete company. My windshield got nailed by a rock that fell of one of these trucks. More interestingly, neither my insurance company nor the highway patrol cared. My insurance company just shrugged and said the cost of a new windshield was less than my deductible, and the highway patrol said it was my word against the trucking company'*. They allowed me to file a report, but they didn't actually *do* anything about it.

While I'm sure it takes a lot of force to crack a Bonneville windshield, it can happen fairly easily if you get hit with a rock on the highway. And oh yeah, if there was no windshield there and the rock hit me, it would have been pretty messy.
