Consumer Description

THE REAR WINDOW SPONTANEOUSLY CRACKED/SHATTERED. WHEN ENTERING THE CAR THE REAR WINDOW WAS IN ONE PIECE. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE A CHUNK OF MY WINDOW FELL IN. THE PATTERN AROUND THE CRACKED WINDOW APPEARS AS A CLUSTER OF THERMAL BREAKS. I HAVE LOOKED AND THERE ARE MORE SUBARU'S REPORTED WITH THIS ISSUE AS WELL WHICH HAS TO DEAL WITH HOW THE CAR DE-FROSTS THE GLASS. *TR
