Description of the problem	Windshield is defective and easily damaged. First damaged occurred on november 24, 2019 with 4501 miles driven. A small pebble struck the windshield resulting in a small star burst crack while the car was in motion. Second damaged occurred on march 15, 2020 with 8,651 miles driven. A stress crack from the passenger side windshield originating right below the wiper blade defrosting heating element. The crack was not caused by any impact. Later it was noticed after the car was driven and parked in the driveway. Reviewed many other subaru customer complaints about the same stress crack originating from below the passenger side wiper heating elements. I strongly believe the 2019 subaru forester should be recalled for either having a structural design fault that causes stress cracks to form at the bottom of the glass or the glass is very brittle from minor strikes or flexing.
