Default C7 windshield problems

I bought a 2016 C7 six weeks ago and notice3d a few days ago that the windshield is cracked on the passenger side in the corner. Some have told me that this is a class problem and should be covered by warranty. It is obviously cracked on the inside. ?Any others have this issue? Does the warranty cover this?

Welcome to the forum Wayne. I don't think it's a "class" problem, but a few here have had the same problem. It was covered for them.

The C-7 windshields appear to be softer than the ones that were in the C-6's. My C-7 has quite a few small chips. Hopefully your warranty will cover the crack you have in yours.

Got a 2016 C7 Stingray about 2 weeks ago with 2400 miles on it...

Prior doing a paint protection and windows tinting, I carefully looked at the windshield and could not help noticing some small "cracks" all over the top of the windshield: the windshield was delaminating from the top.

Brought it to Chevy, they took a couple of pictures and the guy went to see his manager. He came back a couple of min later and told me it was covered under the warranty. I have to take the car sometimes this week when they will receive it...

Weird. I have never seen anything like this. Just wondering if anyone encountered this problem as well....
