Windshield cracks by model year
What owners say
I was driving 20 mph when I heard a loud crack, shortly after I noticed my windshield had a huge crack toward the bottom that has gotten progressively worse and affects my vision while driving.
Windshield crack issues , had to change 2 windshield
While parked windshield started cracking from front left corner every few hours I go out to check it and the crack has spread halfway across windshield
Glass side window and windshield cracked I do not recall anything striking the window and noticed both after the car had been sitting for multiple hours. Manufacture claims impact, but it is the smallest of pin tip looking and hardly noticeable unless you run a tiny item across.
Windshield got cracked and need replacement within a year
Cracked windshield, no impact
10 months after purchasing brand new vehicle from dealership, the windshield developed large crack for no apparent reason--no debris or collision. Need to replace due to inability to see out and possibility of further cracking/breaking. A class action lawsuit against this company is taking place for this very issue, yet no recall exists. I am forced to pay $500 out of pocket (deductible) in order to get this remedied. Dealership informed me that warranty does not cover this.
Windshield has cracked and has needed replacement twice in the 15 months I have owned it.
Under normal driving conditions, windshield chipped and immediately cracked. Three times. Windshield replaced on 5/26/2023, 6/23/2023, and 2/20/2024.
New kia telluride 2023 7357 miles and i have a bought on less than a year. My windshield suddenly chip under normal driving condition and i have a dash cam in my telluride. When i park the car i saw a chip in the windshield. Then after a few hours i checked the car and the windshield started to crack then after a few hours again of checking the crack keep running and keep getting bigger and bigger, still my car is just parking and the weather is at 60s today. Now i check my car again and the crack keep on running and not stoping even its just parked. This is crazy as this is a new car and i have a car which is 9 years old, daily driving car and have no experience with having this issue with its windshield. Also my family have 5 cars that are older than mine and not experience this at all. I will keep observing this and see how the windhsield and the crack will react to a parked car and a new car that is less than 1 year old
