Wavy windshield.disorienting when in motion. Dealer said all vehicles have this. I have check and all do not. They said it is known but not a defect. I believe it is poor lamination and along with a bad view may not protect in an accident. I don't believe it is 'normal"

It seems as if the thickness of the glass varies. The objects change shape while driving. It becomes impossible to observe the approaching traffic and distances. When you try to turn it is very…

I recently purchased a used 2017 corolla and i agree with 2 others that the windshield has a design flaw. It is extremely angled in toward the car and reflects the dashboard in the window.

I have to wear sunglasses whenever i drive it and even so, need to be very…

This will probably not make the cut for big problems, but i'm sending it anyway since a general rue or advisory on dash reflectivity might. The 2018 corolla tachometer and speedometer have a brightly chromed bevel with a parabolic curve of about 1/4 inch all around the dial that captures the sun from almost any angle and reflects it back into the driver's eye.
