The contact owns a 2019 Subaru Outback. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph the front windshield started to crack. The crack started at the bottom section of the windshield under the windshield wiper and extended approximately 30 inches. The vehicle was taken to an independent glass repair shop and was repaired. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer reedman toll Subaru located at (1700 East Lincoln hwy, langhorne pa) was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 22,000.
I got into my car that was parked in my driveway and noticed a large crack in my windshield on the driver's side. It was not there the night before and there was no impact to my windshield. Since then the crack has spread about 1/3 of the way across the windshield. Again, spontaneously with no impact.
Windshield in my vehicle cracked twice within 11 months of owning this vehicle due to little or no cause. I had to pay for the windshield out of my pocket.
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.
Crack appeared in windshield with no apparent cause and quickly expanded, requiring replacement. First noticed crack while driving on city street. No visible nick, nothing appeared to have hit windshield prior to appearance of crack.

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.
Panel above driver pedals fell off while driving making it impossible to use the gas or break pedal. The panel was improperly installed and missing holding clips and screws.
