NHTSA Complaint #11203701 — 2016 SUBARU FORESTER

THE WINDSHIELD SEEMS TO BE BRITTLE. ROCK CHIPS DEVELOP INTO LONG CRACKS THAT CONTINUE LENGTHENING WITHIN WEEKS. ROCK CHIPS CANNOT BE REPAIRED WITHOUT FURTHER CRACKING CONTINUING. ONE TECHNICIAN TRIED SIX TIMES TO REPAIR A CRACK. THE WINDSHIELD HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR $802.13 AND A CLAIM FILED WITH INSURANCE. WITHIN 14 MONTHS THE WINDSHIELD HAS DEVELOPED A SNACKING CRACK THAT IS CONTINUING TO GROW FROM A ROCK CHIP AGAIN. IT'S CONCERNING THAT ANOTHER INSURANCE CLAIM WILL NEED TO BE FILED AND THAT THE WINDSHIELD CAN NOT WITHSTAND NORMAL ROCK CHIPS. IT IS ALSO CONCERNING HOW THE WINDSHIELD WILL PERFORM IN AN ACCIDENT. ALSO THE REQUIRED WINDSHIELD TO MAINTAIN 'EYESIGHT' IS NOT AFFORDABLE WITHOUT FILING AN INSURANCE CLAIM. THE CHIPS DEVELOP WHEN DRIVING 50-65 MILES AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY.
