Consumer Description

NEW 2017 SUBARU LEGACY WAS BOUGHT IN MAY 2017. WITH IN A MONTH, WINDSHIELD CRACKED WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY IN A SHOPPING MALL PARKING LOT. DEALER DID NOT COVER STATING IT WAS ROCK HIT. IT GOT FIXED WITH INSURANCE CLAIM. AFTER FIXING IT, THE SAME DAY EVENING IN THE OFFICE PARKING LOT, IT CRACKED AT THE SAME SPOT. WITH COURTESY OF THE THE REPAIRER IT WAS CHANGED WITH WARRANTY. NOW, EXACTLY AFTER ONE YEAR, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, HEARD LOUD NOISE AS IF MY TIRE GOT BURST. WHILE LOOK AROUND I SAW THE WINDSHIELD CRACK AT THE SAME SPOT. IT CAN NOT BE COINCIDENT TO HAPPEN 3 CRACKS AT THE SAME SPOT.
