I recently noticed a pretty big crack on my windshield, and since the car has 800 miles on it and hasn't been hit with a stone, my only guess is a stress crack of some sort.

I took the car the the dealership and the service dept. insists that I was hit with a stone, but it's pretty unlikely that it happened sitting in my driveway.

I'm pretty bent out of shape about the whole situation and the manner in which I was treated by the service dept, and I'm really questioning the purchase of my Mini this morning.

Anybody have any clues, have ya seen this before, am I crazy, help a brother out here, please.

thanks!
dave
