Consumer Description

WE TEST DRIVE A 2015 OUTBACK SUBARU AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT HAD A CRACK IN IT AND DIDN'T THINK TO MUCH OF IT 20K MILES. WE ENDED UP PURCHASING THIS ONE PRIVATELY AND IT HAS A CRACKED WINDSHIELD AS WELL. IT ONLY HAS 11K MILES. THE CRACK ON THE OUTBACK THAT WE PURCHASED STARTS AT THE TOP MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD BEHIND THE REARVIEW MIRROW AND CUTS DOWN AND TO THE RIGHT ABOUT 8 INCHES. AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, IT SEEMS THAT THERE'S A HUGE DEFECT WITH THE WINDSHIELD AND DEFROSTER THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THIS IS A MASSIVE SAFETY ISSUE!
