I knew the Yaris glass is soft but... - Toyota Yaris Forums

I have had the car for a bit over 5 years now and mechanically, it's been awesome. Almost 162,000 miles and nothing but a waterpump and oil changes. Anyways, it was REALLY COLD in Detroit yesterday...around -10,-20 and I'm driving home from work. Well the car was warmed up and I drove a good 30 miles or so...about a mile from home and driving down the sidestreet, to my horror, I just see a massive crack in the windshield spread from the center almost all the way to each side of the pillars, maybe 3 or 4 inches above the dash. I couldn't believe it! No chips, no cracks prior...nothing. And the car was warmed up for a long time already so there was no reason for it to crack.

Anyone else had a "sudden" cracked Yaris windshield issue? I know it was a widespread problem with Jeeps but this isn't a Jeep...it's a TOYOTA

I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.
