I too am having intense pitting problems on my 2003 Element EX. Also had same problem on my '87 Honda Prelude. Three windshields on that one! I don't understand what the sealant would have to do with the pitting problem, rather, I suspect that the glass meets the minimum US standards and is not tempered correctly or at least up to quality specs. If this is so, I'm going to need some help convincing Honda that a recall is in order to replace with PPG or better quality windshields. It is a potentially dangerous fault in that it not only wears out wipers faster, but impedes vision when driving into the sun.

Is anybody with me in this quest?
