Consumer Description

CRACKED WINDSHIELD. POSSIBLE DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT. PRESENT IN SCION XBS YEARS 2006-2008. IF YOU GOOGLE "XB WINDSHIELD" YOU WILL FIND NUMEROUS POSTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. TOYOTA/SCION APPEAR TO BE REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ISSUE. I CONTACTED SCION AND THEY TOLD ME TO CONTACT THE DEALER TO LOOK AT THE WINDSHIELD. THE DEALER USES A BIASED 3RD PARTY GLASS COMPANY WHO, OF COURSE, SAYS THE FREQUENCY OF WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENTS ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER CAR. WHICH, BASED ON THE NUMBER OF INTERNET POSTS AND WEBSITES DEDICATED TO THIS ISSUE AND A POSSIBLE CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT, ALL BEG TO DIFFER. *TR
