| Description of the problem | The windshield cracked from the lower passenger side. Three large cracks one of which is now almost all the way over in front of the driver. There was a chip where the crack started. The big problem is that the windshields are on back order with no idea how long it will be to get a replacement. I have had cars with rock chips before and usually get them filled, but this windshield cracked almost immediately while on a road trip. I think it is obvious that subaru has a problem with poor quality windshields if they cannot make them fast enough to replace all the damaged ones. The car does have the eyesight system and there is no aftermarket windshield available. |
