NHTSA Complaint #10188924 — 2007 TOYOTA FJ CRUISER

I HAVE HAD MY FJ SINCE APRIL 23, 2006. THE WINDSHIELD ISSUE TOOK A LITTLE BIT LONGER TO CROSS MY PATH THAN IT SEEMS OTHERS. I WAS RIDING ALONG THE EXPRESSWAY WHEN I HEARD A SMALL SIZE PEBBLE HIT THE WINDSHIELD. DIDN'T THINK THAT MUCH OF IT BECAUSE IT WASN'T VERY LOUD. WELL I WAS MISTAKEN. LESS THAN 2 HOURS LATER IT HAD SPREAD TO A CRACK OF 6 INCHES. I COULDN'T EVEN GET IT REPAIRED. THAN I LOOKED AT THE FORUM AND SAW ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS. I DON'T WANT TO REPLACE BECAUSE I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE RECALL OR SUBSEQUENT REIMBURSEMENT. I DID HEAR OF A COMPANY CALLED CLEARPLEX WHERE THEY CAN STRENGTHEN THE WINDSHIELD BY ADDING A CLEAR THING PLASTIC PROTECTIVE COATING. DON'T GET ME WRONG I LOVE MY FJ, BUT THIS IS NOT RIGHT. THEY DID THE RIGHT THING WITH THE TIRE RECALL AND THAT WAS PROBABLY 750 PER CAR, REPLACING ALL 5 TIRES PLUS LABOR. I TRUST THEY WILL DO THE RIGHT THING. *TR
