windshield....dead

sux man, MSPs have so many curses..clunk, windshield, heatsoak, bushings, and who can forget...all the totalled MSPs :(
 
Its probably a factory defect how the windshield was installed. I've done everything possible to upset the chassis and no windshield crack.
 
Mine happened when I hit a large water puddle with my passanger side tires. It pulled that side and the drivers side was on dry pavement. I guess it was enough pull to flex the car and crack it. Kinda sucks.
 
I went to class at 1:00 and got out at 5:00.
went to class windshield was OK
got out and had a crack going across half the window.


mazda said they won't fix it cause it was a impact.(upbum)

Yes but have you called it fat? Oh yeah I didn't think so tough guy!
 
Sometimes strut bars can cause a pressure crack in the windsheild. Happened twice when I put a spoon strut bar on my delsol. Took the strut brace off and put on a dc sports and no problems. Not saying that this is the problem, but the change of the strut bar made a difference for me.
 
awsome, I am looking forward to a life of windshield replacements and creaking clunks. Mazda better be glad I love this car...
 
What fixed my Windsheild

Once agian into the breach....

I am on my 3rd windsheild. Seems the third time is the charm. I told the installer about the problem I was having and he suggested using an extra amount of the mounting glue/caulking along the top edge and corners. I told him to go ahead I had nothing to loose. Well so far so good I have had no more problems with the Windsheild since then.

Just thought I would pass this along seems to have worked for me. (yupnope)
 
I finally got my windshield fixed a couple weeks ago. It was $300 to get it replaced without insurance but I have a lifetime warranty on it so as long as it cracks without an impact (like it did before), they will replace it for free.
 
i had to have mine replaced through insurance (still a 200 dollar deductible), but i think mine was a rock (impact) thing.

I got the same stupid answer on mine.
 
My window was fixed for free, but it got a rock through it a week later from a Semi truck....figures
