VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD

purchased 2014 corvette- stingray on 1/21/14. rock hit windshield 2/20/14- chipped glass. replaced glass via safelite. safelite damaged support system behind the rear-view mirror which caused signals to reflect on dashboard: "service theft alarm" and "top-not secured". car was at dealership for 8 days waiting for replacement parts to arrive. 2 days after car was released in working condition- another rock hits windshield & chips the passenger side of glass. is there possibly a problem with the angle of the windshield? is there possibly a problem with the quality of the glass chevrolet has installed in the new stingray? i have had rocks hit my windshield(s) over the years- i have owned over 20 cars- ( 13 previous corvettes ) from what i recall- i have only had to have 1 windshield replaced prior to this new car. usually - these rocks reflect off of the glass without any damage. if there is a problem with the design/angle and quality to the windshield this could potentially be a serious problem with the new stingray-corvette!
