Guess i am an unfortunate member of this club too. Two months and bam i have a small hole as well. Luckily I have USAA too and they didn't charge me to repair. I can still tell there it is there though b/c of a small bubble.

<----- That many miles (a little more, now), almost four months, lots of highway miles, and still not a knick or chip!

I don't think I have any chips yet... but does anyone else notice that when you get bugs on your windshield they don't clean off at all?

I've travelled to LA, Las Vegas, California Coast, Etc. A big rock hit the front of my windshield a little past stockton but that didn't crack the windshield. A few weeks later i'm three cars behind a construction truck (3 trailer deals) carrying rocks. I was behind three SUV's with the usual 3 car lengths and a small rock smacks the bottom part of my windshield causing a 6 inch crack that eventually got longer and curved left.

How much is a new windshield? i will probably wait till the crack gets long.

My front has many small chips and the front lip and upper bumper isn't as shiny since the past winter with road debris and sand.

Yeah I have the same bug problem but no cracks . I've found that steel wool takes the bugs right off.

I have 3 chips in mine after having it for 3 months and a little over 6000 miles.

For Jugglah: All of my chips came from vehicles passing me going the other direction.
