I have had two brand new Subaru Outbacks. My first was a 2015 and my second is a 2017 Outback. My 2015 had 4 broken windshields in less than 2 years. My 2017 has had 3 broken windshields in 3 years. All together I have had 7 broken windshields in 5 years. Some happen when the car is not in motion and some have happened when the car is in motion. All the breaks begin somewhere around the perimeter of the windshield (up to about 3-4" from the edge. I can't tell what is causing the cracks to happen because there is either no indication of anything striking the windshield or there is a tiny "flick" crack sound as if a speck of sand hit the windshield. I have reported this problem to you before when I owned the 2015 Outback. I see that there are now 2 class action suits pertaining to this. Hope this can be remedied.

- Bartlesville, OK, USA

My factory-installed windshield cracked spontaneously while driving at highway speeds 4 months after purchase. The crack immediately spread to over a foot long. I replaced the windshield with oem glass. Less than a week after replacement, it cracked again, while decelerating on an off- ramp. Again, the crack was immediately over a foot long. Both times, there was no apparent rock or reason for cracking, nothing around that would have kicked something up. Both cracks started near the top of the windshield, but neither started on an edge.

My windshield has cracked without being hit by anything across the bottom near the wipers. My battery continues to die for no reason that I can find, even after I have replaced it. I don't leave the lights on or anything and I can come back to my car and I have to jump it. I have also been in it after driving it, stopped and turned the car off and listened to the radio and 10 minutes later I go to turn the car back on and it's completely dead. After I get it going the gate will beep continuously while it is still closed and I have to reset the whole vehicle to get the beeping to stop. I took it to get checked and they told me to replace the battery. When I got the battery checked for power nothing seemed to be wrong with the battery. And yet this continues to happen.

My wife came out of work and noticed a large crack running from the top/center of the windshield down and towards the driver side of the vehicle. The vehicle was parked from 6:30 am to 3:30 pm and was not near another vehicle. The windshield was crack free on her drive into work and she did not have anything hit the window while driving. There are no signs of any sort of impact on the windshield and there was no debris (I.e sticks, pinecones, rocks) on the vehicle when she came out of work. Vehicle was parked in a small parking lot on the air national guard base where she works.

Vehicle was purchased 30 Dec 2016. Full windshield replacement by subary dealer on 11apr2018, 1 year 3 mos from initial purchase due to a small rock hitting while driving on highway, passenger side, lower corner edge. 31oct2019, 1 year 6months since full replacement, another crack appears in the windshield, lower section, middle of windshield. This time we we had the spot filled because it was very minor and had not "spidered". 18apri2020, 6 months since last crack, another crack from rock while driving on highway, driver side lower corner edge. It spidered on impact to the point that we will have to have the entire windshield replaced by the dealer. This is very frustrating since we have had several difference vehicle brands and this is the only car that has had repeat cracking of the windshield. There must be a design flaw.

I had to replace my windshield on my 2017 Outback 02/14/2020 and again on 03/21/2020. I didn't notice any direct impact on my windshield. Advanced auto glass in weatherford, tx was the glass company that did the replacement. Then the second time didn't notice crack either. Never heard impact. But advanced showed me a small pin sized impact area in the lower part of windshield, the part that's black. The crack was too long to just fix. So waited till the crack extended to in from of driver side.

There are two cracks on the windshield, including areas that don't seem to have been able to be hit by road debris (on the very edge, protected by body trim. These were discovered and haven't been connected to any obvious piece of road debris or dings. They were just discovered in a normal visual inspection prior to driving.
