problem #4

  • 3,500 miles
I purchased a new 2019 Outback at the end of March in 2019. In May 2019, my windshield spontaneously cracked, diagonally across the entire windshield. I took it to the dealership in July to note the crack and request they replace it since it seemed to happen without any impact. The crack began from the top edge on the passenger side. I never received a response from Subaru or the dealership.

The rear liftgate only has the exterior electric button to open liftgate. A panel inside the gate has to be removed in order to give anyone trapped inside a safe exit. The panel requires a tool to pry it off in order to get to the latch inside. The key remote fob will only unlock the electric switch, not release the latch. Anyone trapped inside would still not be able to escape the back of the car.
