I have now replaced my windshield a second time in a 30-day period of time. I had my windshield break while I was driving down the road and did not see anything hit the windshield before this happened. As soon as I got it replaced, 3 days past and I woke up one morning to see that my windshield was broken again. Nothing hit the windshield either time and it just sporadically cracked. I'm dreading having to pay for the third replacement.

My windshield has cracked and had to be replaced twice since purchasing the car with only 41,000 miles on it currently. It is a 2017 Subaru Forester and there are now 2 cracks in the third and current windshield.the windshields they are using are unsafe and cost roughly $1300 to replace due to the eye sight system. Subaru is installing these unsafe windshields knowingly and collecting massive profits from all the replacements.

I purchased my 2017 Subaru Forester in July 2017, so I've owned the vehicle for almost 4 years. One day recently I got in my vehicle and noticed a massive stress crack in the windshield. The vehicle was parked outside of my home and I had not previously seen any cracks on the windshield. The crack is around 12 inches in length, maybe longer. It starts at the base of the windshield on the driver's side and extends mostly horizontally toward the passenger side. I ran my finger end to end across the crack both outside the vehicle and inside the vehicle and I could not feel the crack. Which means the crack is on the inside of the windshield, which makes me think it is a stress crack. This is a common issue with numerous Subaru vehicles of various makes, models, and years. My 2017 Subaru Forester is included in the list of vehicles that is affected. Subaru has a class action lawsuit against them because this issue of Subaru windshields cracking is so common.

While driving straight forward on a well-maintained highway under normal road conditions my car has been hit with several rocks that have been flung from truck wheels into my lane. My car's windshield chipped and cracked in an unusually easy and violent manner. One of the cracks specifically seems like a hazard to the structural integrity of the glass, as it is easily spreading with any pressure on the windshield. I have only had this car for 6 months, and I have 7 (possibly more) visible rock chips and cracks on the windshield. My prior Subaru was an older (2001) model and I never experienced a visible rock chip in 8 years of ownership.

After owning my certified pre-owned Subaru Forester for 3 months I woke up to a large spider crack starting from the top of the windshield. The vehicle was parked at my apartment complex in a patrolled lot. It went downward about 8 inches in length. No rocks were heard or visually observed to impact the windshield while driving the vehicle. The source of the crack appears to have started on the underside of the glass where it is sealed at the very top. This crack was not able to be felt with a fingernail which is how it is known to be under the glass.

My windshield developed a large crack (2 feet long) beginning at the lower left edge of the windshield below the wiper extending half way up the windshield.

I noticed the crack when I parked at my house, I'm not sure when it started but was sure it wasn't present when I purchased the vehicle 2.5 weeks previously.
