crack without impact, small chips along horizontal line
Service manager was not helpful. I reported it to Toyota. They seem unprepared for complaints. Seems like a design problem.

I bought my 2017 Tacoma on October 1st. On Monday, December 5th I drove to work and didn't notice anything unusual about the drive. I don't recall anything striking the windshield that morning. When I left work that afternoon, I noticed a crack in the windshield coming from the bottom corner on the passenger side. Upon inspection, it appears that something may have struck the windshield about 1/2" above the wiper blade and caused about a 3" crack. I found it odd that something could have struck the windshield that far down. I have not had this issue replaced yet as I wanted to get through the holiday season. I drove to work again this morning (12/27/2016), and again was not listening to the radio. I did not hear anything strike the windshield. When I got in the truck at lunch time, I noticed a star where something struck the windshield about 8" above the wiper on the passenger side. It had to have been something extremely small to strike it and not make any noise to alert me, yet it still damaged the windshield.
I have called Toyota to see if this is a recurring issue and was told they were not aware of any issues. Same from the dealership.
I'm hesitant to get the windshield replaced for fear that this issue will happen again.

I've had my truck for 6 days. I was on my way to work on a 25 mph road with no other vehicles around. I hit a bump in the road and my windshield split. The crack goes from the edge on the upper side to the right of the rearview mirror and curves into the center of my windshield. I called the dealership where I bought the car in hopes that 6 days and 200 miles meant this was a vehicle issue but they said no. I have paid $500 to have it replaced and I've not even put gas in the truck yet.
