What owners wrote

I just purchased my 2008 jeep commander almost 3 weeks ago and I already have a cracked windshield. At first it was just a little star that turned into a very large crack in just a matter of hours. It was a very small rock that made a very big crack. Now my navigation system is bugging out.

I have owned two jeep commanders. 1st was a 2006 commander that I leased. Seems to be a problem with the windshield cracking easily. I had to replace 2 windshields on the vehicle. I traded it in and purchased a 2008 commander. Within one week, I already have a rock chip. Seems to be a defect with the windshields they are putting on this vehicle.
