Consumer Description

I HAD PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT MY PRIUS WHERE I RECEIVED 2 CRACKS ON MY WINDSHIELD WITHIN A WEEK OF OWNING THE CAR. I NEVER HEARD A ROCK HIT MY CAR. I REPORTED IT HERE AND TOYOTA CALLED ME TO REPLACE MY WINDSHIELD SO THEY COULD KEEP MY OLD ONE FOR QUALITY CONTROL. I WAS FINE WITH THIS BUT JUST TODAY I GO OUT TO MY CAR AND SEE A 6 INCH CRACK THAT STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT WASN'T THERE BEFORE AND I DIDN'T HEAR A ROCK HIT IT EITHER. I FEEL LIKE MY PRIUS WINDSHIELD PROBLEMS WILL NEVER EVER END
