My complaint is that the windshield spontaneously cracks. I have replaced my windshield once last year thinking it was caused by a small rock. 5/29/20 my wife informed me that another one has formed and due to covid my wife has not left the house much while she has been working remotely.

The windshield on my Subaru Ascent cracked in two different places without anything striking them. Please see pictures attached to see. On both occasions my car was parked in my driveway and when I came out there was a crack on two separate occasions. This happened within two weeks of each other.

We are now on our third windshield replacement. Since owning this vehicle - we have had the windshield crack for no apparent reason. It is extremely fragile. I have owned numerous cars and have never seen anything like this! year ago we used to live down the road from a gravel pit and experienced a lot of loose gravel from trucks and other vehicles - and never saw any cracked windshields. Every repair is almost $1,000! we replaced the first one only to have the new windshield crack 2 weeks later. This is ridiculous. This is our first new car and it is costing us more than any of our used cars ever has. Subaru is ignoring us as none of my emails or phones calls have been returned.

The windshield spontaneously formed a crack near the eyesight cameras that eventually spanned the entire windshield after a few days. Was driving on the highway with no other vehicles in the area. No impact occurred. Immediately the eyesight stopped working as well.

Our windshield cracked and we had to replace it not too long after purchasing. We have had problems with our heater locking and not being able to turn it off or our drunk locking and we cant open it we are unable to unlock it.... we put in several complaints about a grinding noise when we break since we bought the car. I noticed it when I first drove it and they told me it was normal. When the car takes off there is a shake and stall before it moves. Also when driving it feels like it jolts and then goes again also a complaint....

A pebble from a gravel company hit my window while I was in motion on a highway, causing a small chip. By the next morning a crack across my entire windshield had appeared.

One night while driving normally down a smooth road to our house, my fianc noticed a significantly large crack in the bottom of my windshield on the passenger side. I hadn't been hit by anything, nor was I anywhere near flying objects that could have caused said crack. Within the next two days or so the crack tripled in size with no reason. At this point it was across 1/4 or so of the bottom of my windshield. I immediately called Subaru of georgetown to schedule a replacement. I had to pay out of pocket because my insurance screwed me over. That was $1000 I wasn't planning to spend while also planning my wedding.

- Las Vegas, NV, USA

Crack in windshield appeared w/out usual sound or sign of debris. Dealer said it could not be repaired, only replaced & all systems recalibrated at owner's expense. I have driven over 1 million miles & have never seen a crack w/ no debris or if any, so small it made no impact. Just a crack appeared like it was pressure on the glass causing the crack.

- Nashville, TN, USA

Was traveling on the interstate around 65 mph, tiny pebble hit windshield, chip in the windshield. We had it immediately repaired by a professional the next day. Vehicle sat in a garage overnight, never used after the repair and the next day, 12 inch long crack in windshield, not repairable at this point. Also, never even made one payment on the vehicle before this occurred and didnt even have 1K miles.

- North Little Rock, AR, USA

The windshield has lot of little rock dings in it which no other windshield on any other vehicle I have ever owned had. When I put Subaru's replacement new windshield on it could have the same issues. The damage of the major crack is due to outside influence that I will have to replace the windshield and I have no windshield insurance but the small dings have to be addressed before I pay $826.65. The major crack happened while in motion as well as the many small dings on the highway and a few on city streets.

- Houston, TX, USA

My car was parked. I saw a crack in the windshield (cause unknown) on the passenger side that began at the top glass and descended, then heading inwards towards the mirror. Over the course of 2 days, it has extended past the mirror into the driver view. The Subaru glass (agc automotive, dot-376, M8H4 AS1, 30E, lamisafe) could be faulty.

- Novato, CA, USA

I recently noticed the windshield has thousands of millions of glaring specks/dots when facing the sunlight in early morning or late afternoon. The windshield becomes so blurry and extremely annoying. This happens when I face lights even night times with oncoming vehicles kinda of glare. I cleaned with multiple solutions not going at all, one angle can be seen very grey colored dot. Took to dealer and also agreed with this. Not sure what are my next steps, but I want this NHTSA look at seriously. My car is just about 2 months and 2K miles on it as of now.
