Just had a second windshield crack in 14 months. The first replacement was a distaster ( too many details to recount,classic case of when something goes bad it keeps getting worse) I was without the vehicle for 2 months. Eventually Mazda Canada got involved. Got it back and a year later it cracked again. No Mazda glass available for weeks so I opted for Non OE. When they removed the original replacement, rust was discovered in the A pillar driver side. The paint repairs in the windshield opening from last years fiasco had proved defective, again requiring a new repair. The Glass shop replaced with Non OE. Now the HUD is off and cannot be calibrated. Will have to find a Mazda OE glass and start all over again. This car is my first Mazda and my last. The original dealer was completely incapable of correcting their mistake. The vehicle itself is quite good but this experience has been brutal. Use a good glass vendor like Speedy etc and wait for the OE glass.
Frustrated to distraction!
