Bad windshield glass, had the vehicle for two months and had two cracks in the windshield from very small pebbles, had a lot of vehicles over the years and this has never happened so easily. Also, belong to an owner's S online forums, and there were hundreds threads on brand new fj Toyota cruiser windshields cracking. You can see other documented windshield problems here: www.fjcruiserforums.com.
Broken windshield caused by a tiny pebble. Pitting caused by sand and tiny pebbles on the road. The Toyota Fj cruiser windshield scares me due to how fragile the glass is. I can not see how these windshields could have been certified as safe by the department of transportation. I have owned vehicles with near vertical windshields in my lifetime and have never had them crack this easy. I even scratched one of the windows washing bird droppings off of the glass. I ended up replacing that window as well. Some one really needs to look into the safety of this glass.
I currently own a 2007 Toyota Fj cruiser. I have already had a damaged windshield due to a stone hitting the windshield on the interstate. The vehicle had only 8500 miles on it and already the windshield needed to be replaced. The windshield sa tvery vertically, but the issue seemed toybe more of a substandard quality of glass. I belong to a forum in which numerous windshield failures have occurred, and some within a few weeks of each other. Any attention given to this matter would be much appreciated.
2247 miles on vehicle, in 3 months of driving and the windshield is pitted in several locations, some are starting to crack. The first one occurred before I had driven 500 miles. This is a safety issue as it concerns proper visibility and windshield integrity. There are several other vehicles on the road with a near vertical windshield like mine, and they are not having the same issue. It seems the glass is really fragile on this vehicle. I am currently waiting on a new windshield to come into stock so that it can be replaced.
