I was driving home from work on the freeway yesterday, when a rock or piece of concrete about the size of a golf ball came flying right at the middle of my windshield. I wasn't behind a truck, or anywhere near an overpass or where someone could have thrown it; it must have been picked up by someone's tires. The result is about a three quarter inch diameter starburst in the center of the windshield, about six inches from the bottom.
Can something like this be repaired, or at least kept from getting worse? It's not in my line of vision, but I'm concerned that if I don't do anything with it, the cracks will start spreading.
If this isn't fixable, about what's it going to run to get a new windshield for a Santa Fe?
I'm going to call around some places tomorrow, but I was hoping to get some unbiased information from someone not trying to sell me anything..
Any information would be appreciated.
