Description of the problem	Six months after buying my 2018 outback the windshield cracked down by the defroster. There was no evidence of an impact. I replaced it with subaru glass because of the eyesight system. Cost was $1000. One year later another crack appeared at the top middle part of the windshield. There is evidence of a small ding.
