Description of the problem	Our 2018 rav4 windshield spontaneously cracked starting at the point where the windshield camera is mounted on the front with rear view mirror attached. We do not recall that anything hit the windshield, and the crack appeared on the car overnight while parked in our driveway. The crack starts at the top of the windshield where the safety sense 2. 0 camera is mounted, and extends down almost halfway to the bottom, and then makes a 90 degree turn toward the driver's side door, extends for about 1 1/2 ft., and then makes another 90 degree turn down toward the windshield wiper for approximately 3". The photo does not show how long the crack is, but mostly where it begins. We have added red lines to show the first 90 degree turn, and dotted line to show the extended crack that is not visible, and the 2nd 90 degree turn. We believe that the windshield design and construction is faulty, and we understand that the prius model is already in legal talks with toyota over the same problem. This should be a recall by toyota, although our toyota dealership is not taking responsibility for this spontaneous cracked windshield which we did not cause. The dealership quoted a price to us for them to replace it for just under $1,600. We feel that this is wrong and unfair.
