Windshield has failed twice with no impacts. Latest crack started after I closed the driver door...heard a pop, then watched a crack run from the upper right across the driver's line of sight over the course of a few seconds. There was no impact to the glass, which had been replaced less than 10 days earlier, which also failed mysteriously.

On 4/19/2015 was driving at 40 miles per hour in a heavy rain storm (I-75) in Georgia a crack developed in the windshield. We could not identify a source of impact to the windshield. The crack started at the very bottom center of the windshield. The crack then split into a "Y" shape and continued over the next several days. We tried to get a new windshield in sarasota, fl our first destination. Local auto glass company recommended by sarasota Subaru dealer attempted to order one to replace during our week in town. Then called to advise us it would be at least another week. We were informed there was a nationwide back log of over 600 windshields for the 2015 Subaru Outback. On 4/27/2015 contacted the Subaru dealer in silver spring, md. For possible replacement during our second stop of trip. We were again advised of a back log on that windshield. They suggested to contact the dealer near my home. On 4/27/15 contacted international Subaru of tinley park, il and all star glass as recommended by dealer. Windshield ordered 4/27/2015 and was advised again of a nationwide back order of 2015 Subaru Outback windshields by glass company and my dealer. As of 5/14/15, no windshield available, check back in another week. Subaru dealer at home thinks it was caused by a small stone. Independent mechanics think there is a pressure point on the vehicle that affected the windshield. If there is not a contributing vehicle problem with the windshield then why the very long back log for a new vehicle windshield" really that many 2015 Subaru Outbacks with windshield problems" and, 3 different dealers in 3 different parts of the country are having difficulty getting the part. When the windshield is finally replaced, will have that area carefully inspected for possible contributing factors.

After just picking up my new 2015 Subaru Outback and driving in bright sunlight, I realized there is a hazardous condition related to the car's infotainment center. The area surrounding the display screen is an extremely glossy black mirror-like reflective surface. While driving, the sun reflects off of this surface into the eyes of the driver. This intensity is enough to cause eye pain, as well as distract the driver. Now when driving on a sunny day, rather than keeping both hands on the wheel, I need to use my right hand to shield my eyes from this distracting reflected glare. I attempted to purchase an anti-glare shield, but they only cover the display area (which actually is not reflective). I need to cover the reflective perimeter trim area. Subaru needs to provide an anti-glare shield that covers the entire infotainment center.

I have 2015 Subaru Outback with eyesight and blind spot detection. I had stopped the vehicle in the driveway, about 10 ft from the garage, waiting for my husband to clean the floor. The engine was running. When my husband came out of the garage and signaled me to park the vehicle inside, I was about to move the vehicle slowly in the garage. However, the vehicle suddenly started like a bullet, as if it was trying to accelerate to that set speed, quickly. My husband heard the wheels screeching and the vehicle accelerating. He jumped on the side and survived by an inch or so. Within a fraction of a second, the vehicle hit the center support which supports the garage doors, then the snow blower and further struck the items kept against the wall between the house and the garage, before coming to a stop. It appears that, in addition to the brake I applied, eyesight may have helped stop the vehicle. I have been driving in the us for over 18 years without a single incident. Parking in the garage is the simplest of all the tasks. I strongly believe that the vehicle may have accelerated on it's own due to some malfunction.
