2023 Dodge Challenger Complaints

On Wednesday, [XXX] I was driving on [XXX] between Daytona Beach, Florida and Jacksonville, Florida. My Dodge Challenger’s windshield suddenly cracked while driving when I transitioned from the newly resurfaced left hand lane to the lower, not yet resurfaced, right lane. Two cracks immediately formed from the left a-pillar. There was no impact from an object that caused this to occur. The component that failed was the windshield. My safety was put at risk as my visibility was no limited due to the cracks in the windshield glass. Two separate Dodge dealerships have inspected the vehicle's windshield and taken digital photographs. No, the manufacturer themselves have not inspected the vehicle or component. At least not in person. There were no prior warnings to the windshield cracking. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I’m not sure if anyone has reported Dodge ( Challengers ) windshields unexpectedly without impact cracking. I’m seeing it a lot on the 2023 years my windshield cracked without impact, my brother also has a 2023 scatpack and his windshield cracked not even a week after purchasing the car. My cousin and uncle both have a 2016 and both windshields are cracked. I’m seeing a lot of videos on social media with people getting challengers and their windshields are cracked aswell there is no ways it’s a coincidence.

-The windshield cracked along the right passenger side with no visible impact points prior to entering the vehicle. -The windshield crack reduces visibility thus increasing the risk of a crash. -The independent service center that replaced the windshield stated that it was 100% a stress crack induced through the manufacturing process. No visible impact point was found after removal of the windshield. -The windshield has not been inspected by any relevant authorities such as the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. -No warnings, messages, or symptoms of the problem were present prior to the failure.

Windshield cracked for no reason no scratches chips or damage but cracked from the A piller on the driver side.
