| Windshield problems |
Stress fracture on passenger side windshield. The crack was about 1 inch when first noticed and then spread to about 8 inches within just a few days. It started from underneath the weather stripping and frame on the lower side of the passenger side. It quickly started into a y like shape. I reported it to my local Toyota dealer and I was instructed that it was just a freak incident and that my insurance would take care of it. I did have it replaced just a day ago and contacted my dealer to have the stickers replaced, but they made no mention of helping me out with the cost what so ever. I believe this is just another example a bad design and no accountability. I hope this report helps some one else down the road some time. If the windshield cracks again like this, I most definitely am going to trade the car in for a different brand of motor vehicle.
