buying a new 2016 cx-5 GT today. I hope I don't see the cracks..
mazda canada and local dealer seems to know about the issue.
Your dealer seems to know about "the issue"?
You mean about the issue where rocks, freeway speeds and glass don't mix?
My previous 4 cars (some I still have);
1993 VW Eurovan
2000 Volvo S80
2010 Ford F-150
2013 Mazda CX-5
All had a cracked windshield within the first 2 years of ownership requiring replacement except for the CX-5 which is still on it's factory glass after almost 3 years ownership. But that's a pretty good dealer you have there who is already warning you about "the issue" before you have even signed the papers! Oh, I see you have one post... here's to you sharing photos of your new CX-5! You must be one happy camper!
