cracked windscreen

Featured Replies

Hi all. ? am new to the forum. So.

Let me start.

? had my yeti a week ago. From the first ? have started to hear a very strong banging noise from the windscreen every now and then. ? let the dealer know. They were puzzled.

Now i heard the same noise one last time cracking my windscreen badly.

The dealer is saying that it must be a stone hit. But it was not a stone!

Now everyone is puzzled?

Anyone here heard anything similar?

My windscreen was hit by a stone last year.

The next time I drove the car it became a long crack ,making a very loud bang.

Perhaps yours had been hit without you realising?

Yetis do seem to have a few incidents with windscreens.

windscreen was hit by a stone last year ,leaving a small chip.

Yep our greenline yeti was 45 mins into our ownership and a stone cracked the windscreen and then about a month ago we had a masive stone hit it again but autoglass said it does not need gluing.

In nearly 2 years, I've managed to crack a screen coming back from France and had a stone chip filled by autoglass after being hit by a "boulder" being thrown up by a lorry in the m25 roadworks.

The crack was along the top behind the mirror appeared overnight and found it next morning :-(

Many years ago I had a brand new car which was parked on private land behind some shops. There was no passing traffic, no other cars at all, and the windscreen shattered whilst the car was staionary and empty. When the replacement screen was being fitted the technichian said he expected that the screen had been fitted under tension in a stressed condition, and it had finally given way. Perhaps yours had been fitted badly the banging could have been the edge of the screen hitting the bodywork.
