It's been in the glass from day one. I'll do something about it before the warranty expires.

It's tough to describe as I've never seen anything quite like it. It sort of has the appearance (I would imagine) of acid having dripped down the glass. I think it is actually inside the glass. My understanding is that the windshield in the hybrid is unusual and has a layer of soundproofing.

It is very mild and only noticeable with strong light coming through the window. It will even be tough to show to the dealer. At night, with oncoming headlights, it is quite obvious and somewhat distracting.
