I have a new 2004 RX330 and I'm not too sure if I have a defect in the windshield.
If the sun is shining directly at me I see what appears to be hundreds of tine specs in the glass. I checked and they seem like very tiny bubbles between the two glass halves.

It is more annoying than anything else and I wonder if it's a known defect.
Do you think the dealer would relpace the windshield if I brought it down or am
I being too critical.

Thanks

 

Check new Rx on dealer lot and if Your's is different tell them to replaced.

 

It's unheard of but possible. Toyota's glass suppliers(PPG, Nippon Glass, Asahi and AP Techniglass) have good quality control.

 

No kidding?? I have a 95' LS with 91k and I've got the exact same thing. I thought it was just years of over the road dirt and grim that etched the glass. I've cleaned, waxed, polished and everything else I know to try, but can't. It's a pain in the tail when the sun hits it and you can't see. Let me know what you find out please.

 

My car is 11 years old and I have not noticed anything like that. I would say that is not up to standards as well.
