Complaint Summary

STRUCTURE:BODY

Owner Narrative

The windshield Carrier (frame) that the windshield sits in rusts out causing the windshield to NOT remain secure the carrier. This can be inspected upon request. I have found online, Many complaints about this issue. The safety factor is, the windshield could become loose or crack while traveling. I am not aware if this has been confirmed by a dealer. At this point, I have not had it inspected but I did have this issue fixed twice to the tune of about $1500.00. Each time this was fixed, it only lasted several years. Last time I had it addressed, I was told that it wouldn't last and that I would need to replace the Carrier or at least the rusted out sections. The warning signs were the water from the rain leaking from above the windshield to the inside of my dash.
