Bug Deflector & Windshield damage?
 

I'm a satisfied owner of a 2006 Honda CR-V.

Probably eight years ago I installed a bug deflector on the hood of my CR-V.

Since that time I've had to replace my windshield at least once sometimes two or three times a year because of cracking.

Typically I pick up chips in the windshield on the driver side. Also horizontal cracks beginning lower on the passenger side of the windshield.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has the same kind of issues?

Or if that's just part of living in a rural area?

thanks,
