Consumer Description

I just brought this new 2022 Subaru Outback one day before this happened. I made a right turn on a local road at a speed near 30 mph. Suddenly, I heard a big sound from the windshield. Then I found there was a hole in the windshield. There was one SUV in front of my car when this happened, and its speed was similar with my car. I just brought this car and total mileage was around 50 miles. I can't image this happened at low speed. I think maybe one small stone caused this problem and I was lucky that it didn't hit me. We let our dealership to repair it and prevent it cracking. I hope I don't need to replace this windshield in the near future.
