New Windshield Poll - Please Respond

***Bostonian1976*** · 10-11-2006, 08:40 PM

Well, after the whole merged-thread fiasco of 2006, I feel the need to appease some members with a new windshield thread. I understand it's important to show Toyota that this is indeed a design flaw, and I realize that a lot of people are relying on this data.

And please...don't ask me to merge this with anything else

Share your windshield stories here. If you'd like the poll titles changed to what they used to be, I can do that as well...just remind me.

Thanks.

Former thread here sans poll (for reference to comments)

THE front windshield is yours broken yet?

what is meant by "broken", exactly?

trainman0978 · 10-11-2006, 09:41 PM

Well , I am just thrilled with all the problems you guys are having, I can't wait for mine to be ruined by a tiny rock.

As I mentioned before, the xB has worse problems, and now the rav4 -- Toyota needs to get their sh*t together quick

My xB has a broken one also and the dealer came up with some CRAP... finding a small rock ding and they said that made the 7 inch break in the windsheild... My FJ is 4 weeks old and so far so good...

if you really want to give this poll some clout, add some more options like.

no breakage so far but have noticed lots of chips from wimpy causes

or

oem windshield has weak glass surface that is chip prone

Had a chip with small cracks. I had it fixed, but I am not at all confident with it. I'm bringing it back tomorrow and will have them do it again. It cost $30.

It already looks pretty weather beaten, and it only has 7000 miles on it. Winter has not quite began in my parts, but the cold is setting in rapidly.

Hi Bostonian - What are the chances of sending all these posts on the inferior glass of the FJ to ''whoever at Toyota'' in Japan?. Someone in charge of production who would actually do something about this serious problem and hopefully issue a recall to all owners!!? ASAP as this is getting rediculous as to the huge number of owners experiencing problems! Who and where can we send these to?
