Description of the problem	I have a second cracked windshield on my forester, which i have owned for 19 months, and has just over 23,000 miles on the odometer. In both cases, i noticed the cracks after going out to start the car in the morning. Those mornings, i thought about the last time i drove the car, and i couldn't think of a noise i heard, which you would typically associate with a foreign object hitting the windshield. Nothing. No matter how faint. The first cracked windshield happened at just over 10,000 miles, and the second happened at 19,500 miles. I am convinced that this is an engineering issue with subaru of america. I voiced this concern to the employees at subaru, but was informed that is was not an engineering problem. Additionally, the two cracks started within 4 inched of each other, by my estimate, slightly left of center if looking at it from the front of the car, and near to bottom of the windshield. Thank you for your interest in this matter.
