Hi,
These are two apparently unrelated things:
1. I suddenly got a weird crack in the windshield. It's a perfectly round 3" wide circle. Not sure how a rock can do that, since a rock should have a central impact point.
2. I started hearing an annoying noise from the top of the windshield at high speeds... The dealer says that the surrounding rubber is unsealed in a small place, and they must redo it, but better after I replace the windshield.

Now... Is it possible that because the windshield was not properly mounted/sealed, it vibrated, and this internal vibration caused it to crack? (since it's hit straight-on by the wind)

I'm asking because in this case I should have them replace the windshield under the warranty. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Regards,
Chris

The noise is well covered here and the dealer will take care of it.

I don't know about that odd crack.

Is it the massiveness or the skin rash?

That looks like the woman who played Johhny Depps mother in "What ever happened to Gilbert Grape"

He must be. He never posts anything of value to the members.

Orbital had a big nasty crack in his windshield remember?
