| Description of the problem | I have had issues with my subaru windshield where i have had to get the windshield replaced multiple times in a short time span. Within the last year, i've had to replaced the windshield twice already(21jul2017 and 11may2018). After getting the car back last friday (may 11th, 2018) after getting the second replacement, i got another crack/chip while driving home from work under normal driving conditions. I fear that this latest crack may spread and will force me to replace the windshield for a third time. I don't feel that the windshields are strong enough to protect against slight impacts and my children no longer feel safe in the vehicle after seeing the windshield crack so many times in the last year. |
