Description of the problem | Cracked windshield. New model vehicle w 10000 miles windshield cracked from an impact of a small rock or other on the highway. Never had this happen, 30+ years driving. Very thin and fragile glass and complicated expensive electronic sensors will require 2 repair shops, 7 or more combined hours, and many dollars for the repair. Toyota does not cover the repair, although my car is under warranty and i have purchased a toyotacare plus prepaid prenium mainentance plan. Aaargh!! Frustrated customer! Is toyota going to issue a recall on these lousy windshields? |
