Description of the problem | My 2008 lexus is250 passenger side windshield bracket clip break off, when i drive at a high speed i can hear the noise that the wind tapping against the windshield. Because the bracket clip is broken, so it will not hold the windshield frame down. I affair that it will come off and hit someone behind or people on the side walk if someone happens to be jogging. When i look at it, it seem that the bracket is poorly design. The car at this age should not happens if the design is look carefully. I never see like this before, even my truck 300,000 mile the windshield bracket still strong. |
