It's me now!
Stopped for five mins. Out of car and good old 3inch on RHS. Drove off cursing and as I did a 3point turn it split by 90' and doubled. So have a square on drivers side. Phoned dealer from car and as I finished call there was a snap and left side joined in!! Drove to dealer and I'm second for them, 5th in Europe. Safe to drive ( at min) but warrenty fix in a couple of weeks. Recalibration of camera etc being the hold up. Club Cracked CHR
:-(

In the topic mentioned above someone said Toyota knows of 70 cracked windshield cases. The dealer should replace it under warranty terms.

The screen is being replaced by the dealer, as Toyota are aware of this, still have no regrets of getting CHR, our dealer has been really good even before we got the car, nice coffee and friendly salesman and sales manager, I would recommend Toyota at Gatwick

 

[TertreRouge24]

For me, it's toyota at horsham, specifically Motorline Slinfold. Very good team and I'm very happy with them and the car. Yes it's annoying but hey we're all driving around in a new car that turns peoples heads. So no regrets.

Add me crack appeared today

 

[Anieman]

Last Sunday I washed my CHR for the first time, at that time the windscreen was ok. But one hour later, while the car was just standing on the sunny driveway a crack had been arrised in the upper left corner of the windscreen.
I hope my Toyota dealer asks a highly qualified company for the replacement, and that this is not a start of more bad luck!
Despite this, I still love driving this fantastic car!

I've joined the club. I got one almost straight away unless I missed it when I picked it up. Toyota said one of those things but I am going back into battle. Top right hand corner .

Can you upload a photo please?

 

[Leggera]

Its not one of them things and head office will fix under warranty.

This crack appeared spontaneously after one month in the windscreen.
It's in the upper left corner, the length is about 200 mm and it's only in the inner layer.
On the outside you can feel nothing with a finger nail.

That's exactly where mine went the morning I was due to take delivery

Toyota contacted us today, screen should be here within 7 days.

Hope everything will be ok. But what is the reason for this crack ?? They didn't say the reason ? :roll:

they almost find the cause (it seems a lack of "glue" in a particular position between the glass and the metal of the car)

Thanks mate. So if that's valid, then why Toyota don't make it an official TSB or to announce something, and fix it for everyone even with no crack at the moment ? Because if its lack of "glue", then at some point will happen to EVERY owner, even after the warranty period.

I doubt every car has this flaw. I think it's more like a batch of cars from maybe January production or so.
