Windshield hit by rock ,causing dime-sized star fracture, extreme cracking across windshield ensued almost immediately before resin could be applied. Thin windshield.

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 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.

No summary listed for above vehicle.

Windshield cracked in same place & shape as numerous other 2002 Subaru windshields.

Rearview mirror was being adjusted and made contact with the windshield which action broke the windshield. It would appear that the windshield may have been improperly installed at the factory since there was very little pressure involved. This is a safety issue. Fortunately, no one was hurt. The factory rep said they wouldn't replace it. I contacted Subaru customer service, kate clark, who also said they would not fix it. I was told by the dealer I couldn't speak directly to the factory rep, so neither he nor customer service even asked how the windshield broke. A properly installed windshield on a new vehicle should not break from mere contact with the rearview mirror, in my opinion, and I believe it should be covered by warranty and Subaru should replace it.

I have a crack that runs from the top of the windshield on the passenger's side in a "c" or "l" shaped pattern around the rear view mirror toward the driver side. Constant with many wrx owners. It has grown from 4 inches to around 12. The windshield was not hit by any debris to the best of my knowledge. If it was the debris was small enough not to notice while driving, indicating that the windshield should have with stood this impact without cracking. **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis**770828.
