That sucks ass!! I don't even know how it happened but it spidered quick! I took it back to the dealership 10 miles later and we negotiated a way for me to get another factory windshield installed. The cost of the replacement is getting split 3 ways. I pay $200, the rest gets handled between the dealer and mazda. Really happy with that outcome atleast!
Eh, mine was just a small nick-still there 18,000 miles later! Glad it wasn't too bad for you then! It just sucks buying a new vehicle (well, mine was used but the crack wasn't there) and having that happen. Good thing it is gonna get cleared up for you.

Big plans? No, none as of yet. Down the road, i'll definitely get window tint, RMM but I probably won't ever mod the car again from a performance standpoint. The car is fast enough but it's laggy as hell right now. I think it's still learning my driving because I felt like my 08 was like that. Throttle was hesitant at first, just needs to get some miles on her lol.

Drove to the Y in this torrential downpour and what happens?....wipers start freezing up like an elementary student reading his lines in a school play.
Now I gotta search for that thread where the guy took a video of it happening to his ms3 on here cuz I can't remember what the fix was, and also see if its covered under the non 36k warranty.
unless someone here wants to help a brotha out

Nah...it stops and starts partway through wiping. Found the thread where the same thing happened, ended up being an ecu reflash at the dealer. Wonder if I can take my hypertech, flash back to stock, then flash again with the ht tune and fix it
Couldn't be the ht tune itself cuz I've definitely used the wipers since having it, and this morning was the first problem
Either that or I put on 10 layers of rainX and never wipe again (still talking about the car windshield)

That was my video, some kind of wiper initialzation code got erased by me taking the battery out. $35 for the reflash and a trip to the dealer fixed it.
A little late on the reply....

haha cool... see you there!
Drove my speed to grab dinner and man I love this car!!! I just got back from my trip to San Fran and had a '10 Prius as a rental. Great car to save gas but boring and slow as heck. I only saw 2-3 speeds in the Bay area. One Cosmic Blue on Castro and another True Red on the fwy.
took my blue powdercoated svn's off and put my stockers back on for winter. I am in a pressure situation with just closing on my first house last thursday, and I have a few things I have to get in order...so I am posting my blue wheels for sale 
. Anyone interested?? I am making a for sale thread probably this weekend.
