| Description of the problem | I have noticed a small crack in the lower corner of the windshield and i have not been with a rock or any objects. I purchased the suv the february of 2019 and it appeared to have a new dealership windshield. I have seen many complaints online including lawsuits regarding subaru windshields that spontaneously crack. The windshields from subaru seem to be very fragile and i have concerns of a defect. |
