Neither has my '09 which has never been garage kept. In fact, most newer cars do no have any cracks. This is due to the plastics now having UV protection built in. Not becaues of any garbage someone may have applied to it
UV rays are the cause of the cracks of plastic dash boards in the past .

One should not believe all the BS ad copy they read .

Windex will also damage your window tint. Not good for plastics.
