Out of nowhere my windshield had a 5 inch crack, from the bottom of the windshield on the passenger side. There is no chip, just a crack. There is nothing that I know of that caused this. I see online that there are a lot of problems with Subaru windshields cracking. I do not have a picture, just a copy of the receipt for replacement.

With the crack covering the eyesight system, the warning signal was always flashing and causing my steering to pull to one side. Since it was doing this it was causing the car to pull to one side or bring my tires costing me an additional $800 to replace the tires balance and alignment for my Crosstrek, plus the downtime that I had to takeoff from work to get my car worked on at the Subaru dealership.

I pulled over to look from the top and saw the entire sunroof was shattered. The glass looked as if it had �exploded. �.

While driving a 5 week old vehicle down a state highway, two lane, 55mph road, there was a small "tick" sound that was very insignificant. The passenger pointed out that there was now a chip and cracks in the windshield. The small sound, or object that hit the windshield was less significant than some bugs that hit on a daily basis. Yet it chipped and cracked the 5 week old Crosstrek windshield. There's no way this minor thing that touched the windshield should have left a mark let alone a chip and cracks. Later in the same week, our outback that was purchased the same day brand new had the same issue, and it left a chip and crack. . From a very insignificant little something that barely hit the windshield.
Windshield was cracked for no apparent reason. I log a ton of miles as a part-time uber driver and never recall a stone or anything else impact my windshield while I was driving. Suddenly on 9/15/19, there was a small crack on my windshield and now, on 11/3/19, there are linear cracks on the windshield that extend 24" on both sides of that small crack. This was likely due to the changing cold weather.
Windshield cracked for no reason.
I purchased a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek at the end of April. By the end of may, I had multiple chips in the windshield which the dealership brushed off as rock chips. I have never been hit by a rock in this vehicle and I had multiple chips and cracks. I had the chips filled in and a few weeks later a long crack appeared in the middle of my windshield on the inside only. Subaru is replacing it under warranty, but with the recent lawsuit over their defective windshields, I thought it best to report the incident.
