4 Wiper problem of the 2008 Toyota Scion Xb

Failure Date: 09/12/2010

Toyota settled a class action lawsuit for 2006 Scion Xb windshields, but won't address other years. The windshields are defective and break. Here are my 2008 Scion Xb windshield problems for the record. In 09/2010 with 20,000 miles, my 1st windshield cracked and had to be replaced. In 05/2013 with 32,715 miles, my 2nd windshield cracked and had to be replaced. This makes my 3rd windshield. Both times a long odd "l" shaped crack, covered a large portion of the windshield. This made visibility and driving impossible and unsafe.

Out of no where; no trees, no trucks in front of me or any other vehicles, on a clear day, my windshield made a loud pop noise and it cracked from the top passenger side edge to the center of the windshield. It slowly creeped across to the mid-line of visibility on the driver side over the next 24 hrs. -- I was surprised to learn this is a common issue with this year and model!.

9 Wiper problem of the 2006 Toyota Scion Xb

Failure Date: 08/15/2007

Had vehicle for a year when my windshield cracked for the first time. A year later another crack appeared. I did research and it seems like this model in particular had windshield problems and continuously cracked easily. I believe this is a huge safety issue as it affects visibility tremendously and continues to be an ongoing occurrence. As most warranty have expired by now, a recall on these windshield should be in processed.
