2004 Acura TL wipers, windshield & visibility problems

Windshield cracked while making a right turn onto a freeway. After inspection to the windshield acura said a small stone had nicked the windshield causing it to break. Acura paid half the cost of replacement but I was still $330 out of pocket. After checking around with other 2004 acura tl owners Im not alone. Many owners are reporting broken windshields in the first few thousand miles. Many owners believe that the problem is a sound barrier sandwiched in-between the two layers of glass.
