she's had a continuous problem with water intrusion, and until the windshield was pulled this last time, she didn't know that was the true
cause of the issue she has dealt with for half a decade.
simultaneously, she didn't remember that the car had already had the windshield replaced before (again... 4-5 years and a lot of miles ago), until someone found her posts about the hail damage.
which... IIRC the car was officially "bought" after the windshield was replaced.
meaning that the significance of any memory of the car being "down at the shop" would have been for paint issues.
the car wasn't out of her possession to have the windshield replaced. It was replaced prior to her owning it.
As such, was not that big of an issue/memory.
now, as far as connecting the dots between "hey, my car has moisture intrusion" and "hey, this car had the windshield replaced"...
It wasn't just her that forgot.
considering it went back to the same shop repeatedly over the years and they still couldn't figure out what was causing the leak till now.
and you would think that professional mechanics/window repairmen would remember that the window was replaced.
hell, she could have even brought it up years ago and just as easily have it dismissed by said glass techs because they were too prideful to admit they could have screwed up.
