I feel your pain ... mine's been a damage magnet too. I buy a new car every 16-18mo (car A.D.D.) and I've never had one that's had so many things happen to it.

Polycarbonate is supposed to be shatter resistant.

Only 1500 miles and my windshield was cracked by the junk they dump on the roads! Stick to salt!!!! The roads are like a beach! WTF!!

Thankfully my insurance covered the windshield. Oh yeah, don't follow minivans..For some reason they drive in the dirt onthe side of the road instead of the lane itself.
