Reported at 61,450 miles, September 2023 CrashInjury

While in motion on a highway a very small foreign object hit the lower side of the windshield in front of the driver. The sound of the hit was barely audible so the object had to be very small. I don't see how such a small object could break a windshield on a 2 week old vehicle
