Windshield problems of the 2003 Toyota Camry

The vehicle was hit by a semi truck and totaled. None of the vehicle's air bags deployed. The consumer sustained injuries. The headrest was shaped incorrectly for a short person and the windshields reflective properties were distracting when driving on brightly sunlit days.

Windshield has one tiny mark that I would describe exactly the way the first complainant described it, like a tiny nail mark. The windshield is cracking by this mark. Periodically, I would hear a loud noise like a rock had hit my windshield but was not able to discern what had happened. It was a mystery because the first couple of times that I heard the noise, there were no vehicles around me that could have thrown a rock. After hearing this noise a few times, a crack started appearing at the top of the windshield on the driver's side. I have had the dealer that I purchased the vehicle new from examine it and they claim it was caused by a rock. It is possible that when it happened I had my stereo on and did not know it happened. But the startling sound that a rock does make when it hits the windshield with that much force is hard to miss.

I purchased a 2003 Toyota solara in oct. 2003. On January 17, 2004 I was driving down the highway with cars about 50 yards or more in front of mine and noticed a crack in the center of my windshield that looked like it stated at the base of the windshield. It progressively got worse until it came up about 10 inches from the base of the windshield and clear over to the drivers side of the car. I took it to my local Toyota dealership (not the dealership where I purchased the car) to look at it. The service tech. Said something must have hit it because the he saw a chip in the glass just to the right of the crack about 2-3 millimeters in diameter and about 1-2 millimeters in depth. They will not replace it at any charge to me. I know nothing hit the windshield and I feel the glass is defective and cracked due to the cold outside temperature and heat from the defroster.

I purchased a 2003 Toyota Camry in Jan. 2003 since then I have had all sorts of problems, but the one that bothers me the most is tiny pock marks all over my front windshiled. It looks as if someone took a nail and tapped little tiny nicks on the glass. I have no idea how this happened, seeing as I do not tailgate any vehicle especially truckers. The dealership is going to take a look at it but they think this is my fault some how.

There is a cracking sound coming from the bottom of the driver side windshield. The dealer check the vehicle and stated they could not duplicate the problem. The consumer filed a complaint with the manufacturer one year ago and they stated they had no record. . Noise was caused by oose molding, which is cosmetic and not safety related.
