Consumer Description
I WENT ON AN EXTENDED ROAD TRIP AND RECEIVED TWO CRACKS IN MY WINDSHIELD IN A SINGLE DAY. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL CARS IN MY LIFE, AND NEVER HAVE HAD A CAR WITH SUCH A SENSITIVE WINDSHIELD. I WOULD NOT EXPECT THE WINDSHIELD TO CRACK SO EASILY. I KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR OTHER SIMILAR YEAR SUBARU MODELS, SO I'M THINKING IT WASN'T A COINCIDENCE. BOTH CRACKS WERE RECEIVED ON A FREEWAY, MOVING AT 70MPH. BOTH OBJECTS WERE VERY SMALL IN SIZE, AND SHOULD HAVE RESULTED IN ONLY MINIMAL DAMAGE.
