:crying:
FYI-- Just passing on some info
With less than 2600 miles I already have a new windshield because a rock hit just above the VIN number and the crack that grew over 18 inches in 2 hours. The retail cost of the windshiled is $213, they did not have the factory plastic/rubber edge guard (so far a Nissan only part), but the generic guard looked just fine. Installer said he could get the fatory part if I decide I hate the generic stock. A couple plastic clips holding the large plastic parts at the bottom of the windshiled broke during "de-installation" and will need to be ordered from Nissan as well. :huh:

I guess stone chips are different depending where they hit. I had one on my Durango from the third day I owned it and after 100K miles it was still there with no sign of cracking.

I was upset when it happened, but I decided that until it actually started to crack, I wouldn't do anything about it. The new owner of the truck is going to have to deal with it now unless the dealer fixed it, which I really doubt.
