This is an issue with Chassis rigidity and a manufacturing defect. Causing windshield breakage due to torsional forces, chassis load and unload.  Here's my case: 2023 Dodge Challenger R/T - 5.7 / 6 speed manual. This car was purchased new [XXX], it's now broken two OEM Mopar windshields. First occurrence was [XXX] at 2,321 miles. This was warrantied by Dodge and replaced with a new Mopar windshield, [XXX]. Second occurrence was [XXX] at 6,446 miles. At this point in time, my car remains unfixed, undrivable, and has been undrivable since [XXX]. The selling Dealer, Airport Jeep in Platte City, Missouri, has been "working" with a local frame shop to obtain an appointment for a laser frame check. At this point, we've been without the usability of a car, yet still paying for it, for over 30 days. Please see attached images regarding my case, alone. With that being said, I'm also attaching owner commentary and images of other 2023 Challengers where this has occurred as well. The above, being said. This is clearly a chassis build / bonding issue at time of manufacturing, allowing these vehicles to flex and cause chassis popping / noises and windshield breakage. Youtube video references: [XXX] [XXX] The last 4 photos uploaded are from other various 2023 challangers all low miles from separate other owners. Vin numbers unknown.

It's not only related to my particular car. I moved to the US two years ago and was surprised how INSAINLY DANGEROUS driver side mirrors all of the American cars have. There is always a HUGE blind spot. People keep saying that if I adjust my mirrors properly there will be no problem, but it is not true. I've been driving for more than 10 years and now, at least once a week, I find myself in a dangerous situation. The bad thing is - it's is impossible to find a convex mirror as a replacement here. I can't believe that researches showed that the flat mirror is safer than the convex one (is there any research btw)? What's a point of installing flat mirrors on a driver's side? I went to a web forum and found this page: [XXX] (apparently form the UK) posted 2 pictures on 03/06/2023 with American's standard mirror and the convex one. Look at the difference.
