NHTSA Complaint #10261430 — 2006 SCION XB

MY 2006 SCION XB (AS WELL AS EVERY OTHER ONE OUT THERE) HAS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE WINDSHIELD. I AM ON MY SECOND WINDSHIELD. CRACKS HAPPEN FOR NO REASON, SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS TURNING ON YOUR DEFROST. SCION REPLACED MY FIRST WINDSHIELD BECAUSE MY CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. NOW THEY ARE HESITANT TO DO IT AGAIN. I LET THEM KNOW THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ON THE WEB WITH THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE. APPARENTLY IT'S THE 04-06 SCION XB. I CANNOT AFFORD TO GO OUT AND REPLACE A WINDSHIELD EVERYTIME THIS HAPPENS, ON TOP OF MY CAR PAYMENT, AND INSURANCE, NOT TO MENTION MY OTHER BILLS. I THINK SCION OWES IT TO THE CUSTOMERS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THEY CLAIM TO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS DESIGN FLAW, BUT AFTER SOME INTERNET SEARCHING, THERE HAS BEEN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST THEM FOR THE WINDSHIELD PROBLEM. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
