Description of the problem	2017 outback second time windshield has cracked. First time (11/2018)something very tiny hit the bottom of the windshield and it cracked. The car was on an interstate. The emphasis is on tiny, no way it should have cracked. This time, 12/25/2019, i was in the passenger seat, on an interstate, looking straight ahead and all of a sudden a crack appeared on the top of the windshield. I exclaimed to my husband "the windshield just cracked!". Nothing hit it, it just cracked and it continues to grow. This was and continues to be a known problem based on reading i have done. I hoped the first time around subaru had corrected the problem with the windshield, i had a corrected windshield and no longer had to worry. Why isn't this obvious problem being addressed? My insurance rate went up as a result of the first "incident". And, with the first one it took around 30 days to get it resolved primarily because of a difficulty locating a subaru replacement windshield.
