When I bought the car, the glass on the driver was sticking up like it is in the pictures, but the passenger side was only cracked just like the driver side, but not sticking up. I noticed lately that now the passenger side sticks up aswell.
What would cause this? Massive body roll from cornering too hard?




Any ideas/thoughts/opinions would be greatly appreciated. It doesn't leak, that I know of. The local glass shop said that only the top layer of glass is cracked, but they can't do anything to fix it. They said the could try and snap it off, but they risk cracking the 2nd layer of glass.
Thanks,
Dylan

Yea, your buddy that I bought the car from had no clue what it was from either, but he did point it out to me. I just never got around to taking pictures of it until today.

That is F'ed up. I've never seen that happen before either. Which glass is that? The windshield or the back glass? I might be able to get you a new one if you want to go that route.

No,no,no. He was clearly ran over by the infamous bow-legged deermule. Indigidous to the northern midwest and my fragile psyche.
My guess goes towards body roll, perhaps during extreme cold temps with the defroster running? I saw a guy shatter a windshield just by touching it in those very conditions. No, seriously.

$90 and I can get you a new one. Probably have it by Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Let me know. BTW, we don't put them in, just sell them.

I will let you know when/if I decide to get a new one. As of right now I am not too worried about it since it doesn't leak, but it is definitly something I will replace later on down the road.
Thanks
