I saw the earlier post about "curvilinear" cracks. My 2005 H2 has them on both ends of the windshield..exactly the same spots..I don't see how GM can deny this is a defect !!! Now just the other day, I got a rock impact away from the cracks..we'll see what happens when I go for the dealer to replace it !!! I love this forum..you can learn a lot from everybody out there !!!

Add me to the list of cracked windsheilds.

Funny thing is that mine cracked the first day I bought it as I was driving it home for the first time. A rock was thrown from a tire in fronmt of me and wham - created an instant spider web which grew to cover almost the entire windshield in only a few weeks. I just replaced it about 3 weeks ago. Hopefully this one will make it past the 1 month timeframe before it cracks.

The first one cracked badly and was replaced. The current one had a quarter sized hole in the windshield and is beginning to spider out from there. I paid $700 for the first one and am reluctant to do that again, maybe prices of windshields are higher in Southern California. If any So CAl folks know of a less expensive alternative please let me know.

Virginia + Good Insurance = Free Repair or $100 replacement.

My replacement can take a freekin' beating too. No little crackies yet.

Mine has an 8 inch crack, I should have fixed it when it was still a star. Plus another star that I need to fix quick before it becomes a crack. I was lucky enough to have had it crack free for a little over a year.

It'll get a rock crack on the drive over the pass.

I just joined the crack club after owning my H2 for about a month. Luckily my insurance deductible is low at $120. But if this keeps up, they'll probably cancel my A$$.. I insisted on OEM replacement, but don't know if it makes a difference...

Re: H2 Winshield
 
See, I have felt that the H2 windshield is incredibly strong and not so easily cracked. I've had many impacts, and only this last one which was quite a huge MF (like gumball sized) managed to put a small arc of about an inch into the windshield. It hasn't spread, and it's hard to feel when you run your hand over it. I'll get it repaired soon...

But I still think that the H2 (and H3 windshields for that matter) are pretty strong.

Man alive, mine cracked and chipped and I have now replaced it 2 times already...Thank goodness that they only cost about $250.00 here in Canada.

I'm thinking next time I will just drive with out one, I kinda like the wind in my hair! :p

Seriously, I'm more concerned about the Tie rods, CV's and Pitman arms breaking so damn easy on these things...windshield is no big deal...class action on the front and rear linkage assembly's. :mad: Bought it for it's toughness not its meakness. If I wanted to repair a vehicle each time I went off-roading I'd a bought a Ford...or a Jeep. :D
