Rep Power: 342 wow you guys. you should be ashamed of yourselves... this has turned into a tc thread, and if you hadn't noticed, he has not posted in this thread again. he does not care about your opinions for other cars, as was his point in saying "please do not list other cars". sorry but i am extremely sick of people today.

From what he told me from what early tC owners have been saying is that Toyota never tested the roof in cold temps...... so..... ???pretty much all cars for sale use tempered safety glass for all windows, so the tc's moonroof glass is essentially the same thing as the windshield, just the strength of the lamination was weaker. the issue is just with the 05's, the built in wind deflector that pops up when you open it, the lamination job on the glass wasn't strong enough to deal with the wind at highway speeds and/or temperature, so it just cracked (and shattered) in some cases.
