    '03/04 4Runner Windshield Problem - weaker reinforcement?

    Curious if other 2003/4 4Runner owners have experienced problems w/
    moonroof & windshield cracking. Seems like the newer body of the
    4Runner has weaker reinforcement for its windshield & moonroof.
    I recently received a crack to my '04 4Runner windshield and about 1/2
    week later, the moonroof cracked.
    Now, I got a big replacement bill for this damage.
    If you have experience this problem yourself, could you share to see
    if warranty covered moonroof damage, and maybe cost for something like
    this.

    Thanks.

    No offroading, just driving in Pacific Northwest weather after a snow
    storm where lots of sand were dumped onto the roads. Have had lots of
    small rock hit previous car (sedan) & never any crack, but must have
    been very unlucky. Crack started expanding to about 3 inches now.
    A week later, moonroof cracked, started spreading & caved in. Not sure
    why, since it would seem hard to have any rocks hit the moonroof.

    I was thinking the offroading stressing the body ala the past Nissan
    problem, and cracking the glass. Sounds very unusual, would take the issue
    up the chain to regional if need be.
