In the last 1.5 years, I have replaced the windshield 3 times, the lock on the driver side door jams up frequently, due to ease with which the doors swing open wildly in wind, has caused me having to pay $600 worth of damage to another car. Now I must go through efforts to see if I can get reimbursed for the poorly designed windshield.
I thought about buying an Element, but after seeing all the compliants about broken windshields I gave up on the idea. The excuse I read was that the windshield for the Element is more upright so it gets hit by rocks easier. Maybe so, but old Chevy van I had an upright windshield and it never got cracked or broken after a rock hit. Honda must be making cheap windshields.
