| Description of the problem | On the morning of sunday, january 12, 2020, i went to get into my parked 2019 subaru forester and noticed a horizontal crack in the windshield. The crack is roughly 17 inches long on the driver's side. I drove the vehicle on the freeway the day before, but did not notice anything hit the windshield and the vehicle had been parked in the garage overnight. The crack appears to have come about without cause and inhibits the driver's ability to clearly see the road. |
