This sucks!
They were scraping the road on the way to work and bunch of rocks hit my front window, this sucks... now I have a inch long crack 
Do you guys know if this can be fixed withought replacing the window? Would Acura fix it? I want it to be done right so in case I have to replace the window it doesn't fly away after 10 miles.
Thanks

Depending on the size and how deep, a good glass company may be able to fix it. Basically, the will fill the crack and prevent it from spreading.
I know where I live, your insurance has to pay 100% to fix your glass at no cost to you.

I have one that is 17" long across the the driver side of the windshield. I had it fixed so it wont run anymore (since it was about 1" when it happened and that was about 2 weeks after I got the car) but you can still see it. I would get a new winshield but I always hear stories about how they are never the same....wind noise and leaks. Get it filled right away or it will run more or get a new windshield!!!!!

As long as it isn’t too big, in the drivers line of sight or too close to the edge it can be fixed without replacing the entire windshield.

Sorry to hear that bro.
Samething happened on my TL last year, but it only left little chirp on my W/S. (no crack) I am glad that I don't have to replace my W/S because I don't want to loose the VIN on my W/S.

well if you think you got it bad we(my family) was on our road trip the summer after we got our odysee and we we're somewhere either in Colorado or Kansas and a stone got my mom's windshield (they put what I call "crack filler" in it.) it was okay for about 3-4 months then another stone got then they put on a fresh windshield.
i'd personally request for a new windshield
