Crack inside windsheild
I just noticed what appears to be a crack inside the windsheild at the very top on the drivers side. I have a 2015 Z06 coupe. It is on the black portion of the windshield just below, almost touching, the roof. I do not believe a rock hit the windsheild particulary as there is no damage on the exterior of the windsheild. I almost never remove the top. Has anyone had a similar issue. The top of the interior trim blocks being able to view it on the inside of the car. It almost looks like a stress crack.

could it be just a scratch? If you are super ****, and intend to change the window if it is a crack press on it to see if it spiders out. If its a crack, it will get WAY WAY WAY worse, very quickly. If it doesn't bother you, just leave it alone and don't touch it. If it is inside, I would go to the dealer and show them, they may warranty it. I have no idea.

There was one going around here months ago with a crack up about where the seam on the coupe top weatherstripping is, but it looked like an impact did it and the guy disappeared after that was pointed out... so I don't know if there's any kind of pattern, really.

Either it is a warranty issue or an insurance issue. Your comprehensive insurance will cover a windshield replacement. They don't hit you for a rate increase or charge you with an accident if you use it. It is just comprehensive insurance. Hopefully, you have a zero or low deductible on your comp.
