The windshield on my XLT cracked already, at about 1700 total miles while on a road trip. It started at the very edge, driver's side, right at my eye level. There is no pitting or other damage from debris, and I do not remember anything hitting my windshield, so I think it's just a stress crack. Pretty annoying a brand new truck.

I'll find out today if there's any chance they'll replace it under warranty.

12/12,000 warranty stress cracks.

Well, the dealership is going to replace my windshield under warranty. They ordered the windshield and I have an appointment for a glass company to come to me and do the replacement.

Still annoying but at least they're taking care of it.
