| Description of the problem | This new toyota sienna 2016 was delivered with a defective front windshield with distortion at the center bottom. It causes the road markings to become wavy and distorted, and is dangerously distracting especially at night or in low light situations. The dealer was immediately notified, and checked other siennas on the lot, all of which have the same defect. The dealer directed us to toyota, and toyota failed to respond and did not correct the issue. Since it is apparently a vehicle wide defect, it seems a recall would be required to address the issue. |
