Description of the problem	I purchased my 2019 subaru forester on 02/04/2019. Since that time, this is the second time i'm having to replace the windshield for what seems to be no apparent reason; meaning i didn't hear rocks striking the my windshield as is typical. I've owned approximately 8 vehicles prior to this and i don't recall having to replace a windshield more than one time. On both occasions, i've gone out to my vehicle to discover the cracks, not knowing how it happened. I purchased additional appearence & windshield protection for the interior of the car, ( carpets, interior fabric and the leather seats) not intending the windshield would be the thing to require the most repairs so far. At the rate of so far, two repairs per year, i'll have to tap into my auto insurance policy to complete the windshield repairs which defeats the purpose for purchasing the extra protection from subaru. The first repair was done two months after purchase on 04/23/19. The second repair is pending, i have an appointment for second windshield replacement on tuesday, 02/25/20.
