windshield places can fill small cracks up with glueshit, but that only works if the cracks are small.

actually, that happened to me before. I was driving and all of a sudden, a rock hit my windshield, then I saw a chip on my windshield, then I started to see a crack forming, and iterally within 5min, it grow from 0.5inch to 10inches!!! I was like, holy viagra batman!!! I called around and I actually found someone who's stop the growing crack and he did a pretty good job. He told me that it grow so fast because it was -20 outside and I had my front defrosted blasting high on hot! he said next time that happens, turn off your defroster. So, don't nobody call anyone BS unless you're sure it's BS.

Not everyone's an ass on here... Try this guy, he fixed a 10" crack on my windshield. It's been running perfectly for 1 yr now. Let him know you were referred by someone he knows from before or else he'll ignore you.

Yep it's fixable, first they drill the crack and then fill the hole they drilled with that glue stuff. The hole removes the stress and stops the crack from "cracking"
