Yesterday while driving, I noticed a crack at the top of my windshield. It's near where the rearview mirror mounts to the windshield. It's somewhat L-shaped, extended from the top of the windshield down about 2 inches and then curves an inch toward the driver side.
Looking at it from the outside, the crack looks like a hair but I can see a definite "divot" along the course of the crack. I remember driving on the highway several weeks ago and hearing a piece of gravel hit my windshield. It was really loud and scared me. I remember looking over the windshield later that day but not finding any damage.
We had freezing rain last weekend and I bet water got in to that divot and when it froze, it caused the crack.
I've done informal searching on the web regarding this and it seems inevitable that this will likely only get bigger. Any other thoughts? Anyone here had to replace a windshield yet?
