Windshield was cracked on the highway while driving at normal speed. Heard a tiny peeble hit the windshield and later found out that the windshield was cracked.
- Harker Heights, TX, USA
Small crack 2 inches formed on front windshield directly behind rear view mirror. I have appt. To service @ Subaru hopefully its covered under warranty because it looks like factory defect. I heard of other car owners with same problem. Subaru should really look into it have recall. No pebbles or object of any kind have not struck windshield. You can see crack starting from the very top of center of windshield. Thank you!

New 2002 Impreza WRX received cracked windshield by a small pebble while driving. The crack has spidered across my whole front windshield. Subaru dealership doesn't cover this on its warranties.

- Irving, TX, USA
As I was proceeding down a local interstate, a very small pebble came from a truck and produced a very small ding in my windshield. Two days later, the ding became a very large crack. I contacted a worldwide car club for my particular vehicle, and learned that this is a very common problem with this vehicle. I only want the windshield replaced under warranty.

Windshield cracked in same place & shape as numerous other 2002 Subaru windshields.
- Boulder, CO, USA
Windshield experienced an unexplained crack starting above the rear view mirror, going down about 5 inches then vering towards the drivers side. Total length of about 2 feet. No rock chip of any kind were found on my windshield and dealer replaced under warranty. However hearing from other owners of this car model, this is seeming to be a common problem. The crack is nearly identical on all the cars. Other people are not having the luck I had in getting it replaced under warranty.
