I've heard of stress fractures, but this is a first for a windshield to just completely detach... You'd think Genesis would be on point when it comes to these things as a new luxury brand.

Too bad more journalists don't cover build quality and do investigative work to discover how good a product actually is. That alone would mean more to me than a first drive review.
