SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT THIS CAR, USED, I NOTICED A DEFORMITY IN THE WINDSHIELD. OVER THE LAST YEAR IT HAS DOUBLED IN SIZE, AND NOW THERE IS ANOTHER ONE. THE FIRST ONE WAS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, AND WAS MORE OF AN NUISANCE, BUT THE SECOND ONE IS RIGHT IN MY LINE OF SITE WHEN DRIVING. IT CAUSES WHATEVER IS OUTSIDE TO BE BLURRED, AND CONTORTED. IT IS ALMOST LIKE LOOKING THROUGH A COKE BOTTLE, AND IS VERY DISTRACTING. *TR
