Consumer Description

-Purchased a Subaru Legacy in April 2021. Windshield cracked in May 2021, thought it was a fluke. Worked with insurance company to replace it with a Subaru windshield at an authorized glass replacement business. Windshield cracked again in Jan. 2022. Haven't owned this a year yet. -My safety and that of my family is at risk because this glass breaks easily and I feel unsafe driving it while working to get it fixed AGAIN. -There are known windshield problems with recent Forester, Outback, and Legacy models and pending litigation, but not on 2021 model years yet.
