My 2001 Toyota has one 5 year old chip, and another one from a year ago. I bought the filler stuff for it 5 years ago, but never actually used it because the chip simply has not grown whatsoever. It's not an issue.
The 2024 Rav4 Prime XSE windshield is thicker. Multiple rock hits on the R4P resulted in only a small circular chip, and it doesn't crack horizontally like others.
You may not actually need the recalibration… if you have a heads up display, that’s probably different but otherwise it may not be necessary at all. Went through this with my 21 RAV, lots of places tell me, I would need to take it to the dealer for calibration after the new glass. The place I went to said to try it out first and then decide if you need it because a lot of times through replacement does not affect anything. so I got the new glass and drove off, no issues no need for recalibration. The windshield cracked and a construction zone about six months after I got the car. It’s been a couple years and about 80,000 miles since then. No complaints or problems with any of the sensing pack, works like the day I brought it home
I had some stuff done, added a couple of things, and washed my 2010 MK6 Golf TDI (manual) with 205K miles. New windshield - OEM VW from Safelite - replaced severely pitted original windshield after 200K+ miles It feels very good driving my clean car with the new bits!
Had the windshield of my 24 replaced because of a crack, they calibrated it and then had to come out and recalibrate it because it wouldn\u2019t;t registered on the left until I was well in to the oncoming lane. It may self calibrate, but probably poorly.
For my 21 RAV4 XSE hybrid, it cost $1500…
I average a cracked windshield every 1.5 years at this point
Freaking windshield is a magnet for rocks on the street. Funny when I park by another 4Runner I keep looking for the vin# so far everyone I check have a replacement already
Over 15 years, I’ve put 4 windshields in my 2010. Prior to my 4Runner - 0.0 windshields in all other cars combined.
Had mine less than 24 hours before my first Rock chip, 2 by the end of the first week. Apparently this is a frequent occurrence with 4runners.
