Are you using the same fitting company each time and are you going to them or are they coming to you? If they are coming to you, is the car perfectly level while they are working? The windscreen plays a part in increasing the torsional rigidity of the bodyshell so if the car is twisted when the new screen is installed, there can be stresses setup in it.

I have used the same company...each time the windscreen has been replaced it has been at their premises in near laboratory standards. The car has been left the full duration allowing the sealants to cure.

Well then, I think you are just being very unlucky. Hopefully the insurance company will swallow it. Mark

I'd be raising it with JLR and your dealer to get the car checked. |

My old L494 had 11k on it when I sold it and still on the original windscreen. Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...
