Description of the problem	In april 2017, just 3 months after purchasing my outback new, i was driving along i-10 in louisiana when i heard a loud noise and a crack in windshield appeared. It began to grow and a couple of months later, in june, there was another spontaneous crack in my windshield that appeared. My car was still under warranty but my dealership told me that this was not covered. The cost was over $600 for replacement and calibration of eye sight. We purchased the oem windshield because they told us our eye sight may not work with a generic windshield. It was replaced august of 2017 - car was less than one year old. Well, a year later in september of 2018, the spontaneous cracks started appearing again. And now the crack expands across the entire windshield. I am upset at having to change it again because i feel like this will happen over and over again. It is dangerous and effects visibility. Subaru should take care of this.
