It is fairly common with Toyotas (and possibly some Lexus' too). My Toyota had it brand new while getting close to or over 100 mph when I got it back in 2004 and it took a long time to figure out. Initially, I thought it was the moon roof and Toyota refused to replicate the issue since it was beyond legal speeds. Eventually, I had a windshield crack and had to get the windshield replaced. It never occurred again after that.
I also have no issues. But I also had to get my windshield replaced right after I bought the car and before I ever broke into triple digit speeds with the car.
