Only downside on Exoshield - slight rainbow effect when wearing polarized glasses - but I hardly notice it. I’ve taken a couple of hits from rocks at high speed and no noticeable damage - so I don’t mind a little rainbow!

We had the same issue, crack went from say 8cm to 30cm in a week or two after around 22000 kms in mild weather. Replaced under insurance. No obvious chip. Now the new window has a squeak in the same spot as the crack emanated from. Pinch point?

Hey @74CampySuperRecord - Would you mind sharing who the mobile service was from?

Cheers.
Arrowhead Ineos Grenadier had me contact Prodigy Auto Glass.

They sent a mobile tech. The only catch is that the front camera needs to be recalibrated by an INEOS dealer/service dept after the replacement windscreen is installed.

My thought is due to the windscreen being so upright, almost 90 deg, it’s more susceptible to rock strikes and cracks.
Mine definitely got hit by a rock. I heard it. Was on a road trip from Reno to Vegas and “snap!” Heard it, but didn’t see anything. It hit low dead center of the screen. Couldn’t see it from inside. Then 4 days later the crack crept up into view. And because the crack is so slow and went down to the edge of the glass it can’t be repaired. I Assume windshields are a order and wait months ordeal?
