My windshield isn't optically perfect across the width; about 6" from either edge there is a band of vertical ripples.
To be completely honest, I've had the car a month and only noticed it yesterday, so it's not at all severe. At first I thought it was a funky effect of polarized lenses, but I can see it without them on my face.
Would you have the dealer correct this? I've read a few stories about problems getting the car re-calibrated properly when new glass is installed... Is this condition common?
Replacing a windshield is an every-two-years proposition here, because our various governments have decided that gravel is the right thing to spread on the roads all winter, rather than sand.
