Does the Toyota warranty cover a cracked windshield?
I was driving my Toyota the other day when I noticed a crack starting to form at the bottom of my windshield. As far as I know, I didn’t hit anything, and I didn’t notice any damage that would’ve resulted from a vandal. Will the Toyota warranty cover a windshield?

In most cases, the Toyota warranty will not cover a cracked windshield. Most warranties do not cover wear and tear, which includes damage to windshields.
If you believe that the damage was caused by a manufacturer defect, you may want to take your car to the Toyota dealership. The worst that can happen is that Toyota rejects the claim.
However, if you have a
car loan
, you likely have comprehensive coverage
included on your car insurance policy, which may include glass coverage. Call your agent to see if your insurance will repair the windshield. Don’t forget to compare the cost of the deductible versus the cost of paying for the windshield out of pocket, though.If you don’t have comprehensive insurance, you may want to add it in the future. That’s when the
