  1. Hi all, A while ago a stray stone that was thrown up by a lorry hit the very edge of my windscreen next to the offside A pillar. Even though it was a small stone and the impact wasn't severe because it was on the very edge of the screen it resulted in a crack which then proceeded to spread across my windscreen, forcing me to replace it. I've owned lots of other cars before and all the cars that I can think of have had a strip running along the edges of the windscreen which would have stopped this happening. I'm wondering if anyone on here has come across a product that would protect the edge of the windscreen on our cars, maybe a strip of soft low profile plastic?
  2. Well they certainly don't make 'em like they used to! It could be because they are very thin on this car to keep the weight down, but the Windscreens on these cars seem very fragile. We've just bought a car and unfortunately a stone hit the screen near the RH A pillar whilst on the motorway. This developed in to a small crack within about 10 minutes. The following morning it had grown to about 4 inches long. I have filled in the crack with some repair resin to prevent it getting bigger (it's now barely noticeable) and we will be having a new screen fitted asap. From reading on the web, it seems that these are quite common to crack. It was just a short journey in the car and I usually cover 20k miles a year in my cars which have never had this. Even the Gen 7 Celica my Wife owned for 11 years prior to this never had such an issue I thought I'd report it on here so there is another 'log' of it. I found that 1 owner has had 3 screens already fitted! I know that Toyota are not admitting any fault yet but surely it is on their radar as a potential design fault.
