| Description of the problem | A few days ago my new subaru crosstrek developed a spontaneous crack in the windshield. The crack started at the dashboard near the defroster and extended up almost to the roof. I had it repaired by safelight windshield specialists who agreed with me that there was no evidence of a rock or other damage to the windshield to explain the crack. After doing some research it appears this has been a problem with other subaru models and i think they should be recall these car to fix this dangerous problem. See below. Subaru of america was hit with a lawsuit last year claiming 2015-2016 subaru outback and legacy model |
