Description of the problem | The car's windshield seems to be softer than previous models. I had the windshield completely replaced a few months ago, after a failed repair of a large chip. A chip repair was done on the new windshield on april 7th. In the car wash last friday, i noticed several small chips in the windshield. My husband drives a 2016 toyota highlander. His windshield was also replaced early this year. He now has a sizeable chip in the new windshield. It seems that there is a problem with 2016 toyota windshields, not just in the prius, but in other models as well. |
