Summary

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. *TR
