2020 Subaru Impreza SW AWD

P205/50R17 Driver side rear tire suddenly experiencing lots of pressure compared to others. Example 27.7 psi on a subject tire compared to 32.0 psi on others after approximately one week of garage storage. Upon inspection, tread separation/ visible cracking is visible on approximately 1/2 of the circumference of the tire. No warning lights from the vehicles tire pressure monitor system has activated and no trouble codes for that system or others are present, indicating the vehicle at least is not aware of a problem with the tire. Tire pressure sensor reports good battery, accurate pressure when compared to Tire gauge pressure, and reports temperature of approximately the ambient temperature (at the moment, is currently 57.0°F). Vehicle has been mostly garage kept since purchase due to Covid. Has experienced normal North Carolina Summer temperatures though recently within two weeks North Carolina has had some of the coldest weather in some time (Lows mid teens, highs low 30s). Manufacturer has been contacted and currently awaiting response. With my previous experience and knowledge in the automotive industry, it appears that the visible cracking on the tire is relatively new. The inner portions of the cracked area, for instance, are clean and free of any debris, dust or dirt.

Windshield cracked for no reason

The windshield cracked without any reason, at the top by the passenger side. The initial crack was approximately a foot and it has since grown and is moving horizontally across the windshield. It is available for inspection. This happened while the car was parked.

Windshield cracked for no apparent reason

The windshield spontaneously cracked. The car has 3600 miles on it, has never been driven on a highway, and resides in a garage

A pebble hit the windshield while driving on the interstate highway which creating a roughly 12 inch crack starting in the upper passenger-side of the windshield. Within 24 hours, that crack has increased in length, now extending to the middle of the windshield. This has not been assessed by any repair facilities.

When driving on freeways, twice in the last 6 months, the windshield was struck by a small piece of gravel and cracked immediately. The first time there was an impact indent and a 6 inch crack, the second time there was a star shaped indent and an 11 inch crack. The windshield does not seem strong enough to deal with small gravel impacts. In both cases the crack spread overnight as the car heated and cooled. Both times I had the windshield replaced by a USAA-certified glass replacement shop and recalibrated by Subaru.

Second windshield cracked within a year, needs to be replaced.

I was informed that the windshields in certain models are spontaneously cracking two inches from the bottom of the windshield - a tiny rock caused a 14 inch crack which is unheard of. Clearly, the windshield is terrible and Subaru doesn’t want to take responsibility for their faulty windshields. When I check Google, I am not the only one.

Spontaneous windshield large crack while parked at worksite parking place on 06/07/2021. My safety was put at risk because I had to drive back home not knowing if the windshield would explode. I called the dealer (Herb Gordon Subaru in Silver Spring Maryland)right away (around 5:30 pm) and they gave me an appointment for repair with an $800 estimate. They did not inform me of Subaru issued with windshields. This is a recently purchased pre-owned Certified vehicle on 3/22/2020. Called the insurance company and advised me to go in person talk to the dealership which I will today 6/8/2021. No warnings nor I noticed any thing hitting the windshield.

A crack in my windshield appeared, seemingly over night, and is rapidly growing at an alarming rate. Because of the crack if I do not get this replaced soon my vision will be impeded. This is a problem the affects 2020 Subaru Imprezas and is a current class action law suit. It has not yet been inspected. And there were no prior warnings.

WHO: DAUGHTER 16YO (DRIVER), FATHER (FRONT PASSENGER SEAT), DAUGHTER 14YO (DRIVER SIDE REAR SEAT). VEHICLE: 2020 SUBARU IMPREZA WHAT: SUBARU ANTI-COLLISION ENGAGED UNNECESSARILY WHEN: 0704 EST 14 MAY 2021 WHERE: 41°43'07.4"N 81°14'08.3" MY 16YO DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WE WERE HEADING EAST ON E WALNUT STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH ABOUT TO CROSS THE S STATE STREET INTERSECTION. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES OR OBSTRUCTIONS IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE SUBARU ANTI-COLLISION BEGAN TO ALERT AND ABRUPTLY STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE BEHIND US HAD TO BRAKE ABRUPTLY BUT DID NOT HIT US. I BELIEVE THIS WAS DUE TO THE SUN BEING LOW ON THE HORIZON AND DIRECTLY IN THE CAMERA'S VIEW. THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME THE ANTI-COLLISION HAS ENGAGED UNNECESSARILY. THE EVENTS PRIOR TO THIS, I WAS DRIVING LESS THAN 35 MPH IN MODERATE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WAS EXITING THE ROAD CAUSING THE ANTI-COLLISION BRAKING TO ENGAGE.

I GOT TO WORK AT 6AM AND THERE WAS NOTHING, GOT OUT AT 6PM AND SAW A BIG CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

VEHICLE IS LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD WITH NO DAMAGE BUT A LARGE CRACK HAS BEGUN SPREADING DOWN THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE TOP EDGE IN THE LAST WEEK. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF A ROCK STRIKE OR OTHER DAMAGE TO CAUSE THIS. IT APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE WINDSHIELD ITSELF.

WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO KNOW REASON. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW. WINDSHIELD CRACKED AT APPROXIMATELY 7,000 MILES. IT WAS A WARM DAY. GENUINE SUBARU SUN SHIELD WAS PLACED ON DASH TO KEEP HEAT OUT. WHEN I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE SUN SHIELD THE WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED.

DRIVING AT 40 MPH WITHOUT HITTING A BUMP, AND WITHOUT A LIT "HOOD AJAR" WARNING LIGHT, THE CAR'S HOOD FLEW OPEN SMASHING THE WINDSHIELD AND OBSTRUCTING THE DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 10,022 MILES ON IT AND WAS LESS THAN 1 YEAR IN SERVICE. THE VEHICLE WAS ON A CITY STREET WITH NO OTHER TRAFFIC. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALER, UNDER DEALER'S PROTEST.

AFTER REPLACING A BRAND NEW OEM WINDSHIELD FROM THE FIRST TIME ONE MONTH LATER I HAD TWO SMALL ROCKS HIT MY WINDSHIELD AND CRACKED IT I AM FORCED TO REPLACE IT FOR A SECOND TIME. THIS IS VERY UNACCEPTABLE.

FOR A NEW CAR THAT IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD,5000 MILE,THE CHASSIS PARTS FALL OFF DURING DRIVING,WHICH IS TOO DANGEROUS IN MOTION - ON A CITY STREET -TURNING

TODAY, 12/14/2020 AT 430AM I STARTED MY CAR LIKE NORMAL. CURRENTLY TEMPS BELOW 30 OVER NIGHT. VEHICLE HAS A REMOTE START SYSTEM. LET THE VEHICLE WARM UP, WENT OUTSIDE AND GOT IN THE VEHICLE. NOTICED A 12 INCH CRACK ON THE LOWER PASSENGER SIDE, GOING TOWARDS THE MIDDLE. WASN'T THERE THE DAY BEFORE WHEN I PARKED IT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW IN EARLY SEPTEMBER, ONLY 4 MONTHS OLD. I'VE CHECKED ONLINE AND HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, AND EVEN A LAWSUIT BEING FILED AGAINST SUBARU. CONTACTED MY SUBARU DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THEY TOLD ME IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRENTY, BUT WILL CONTACT SUBARU. WITH HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AND SAFETY ISSUE. SEEMS AS THOUGH A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE ON THIS. ESPECIALLY SINCE THE EYESIGHT SAFETY SYSTEM HAS TO BE RECALIBRATED IF THE WINDSHIELD HAS TO BE REPLACED AND THAT SERVICE ALONE IS $1000. OTHERS IN FORUMS/ONLINE HAVE STATED THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH MULTIPLE WINDSHIELDS. SAME ISSUE, WHERE THEY'LL WAKE UP THE NEXT DAY TO A CRACK ACROSS IT.

OUR WINDSHIELD HAS CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR OUT FOR LUNCH - NO DAMAGE. THEN HE WENT BACK OUT LATER THAT AFTERNOON AND THERE WAS A LARGE CRACK. EVEN IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO HIT THE CAR (WHICH WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE SO MINOR THAT HE DIDN'T NOTICE), IT SHOULD NOT HAVE IMMEDIATELY CRACKED LIKE THIS. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE.

THE WINDSHIELD ON MY 2020 SUBARU IMPREZA CRACKED BY ITSELF. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE SUSTAINED TO THE WINDSHIELD. NO MARKS FROM ANYTHING HITTING THE WINDSHIELD. IT CRACKED SIMPLY WHILE SITTING PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A NEW 2020 SUBARU IMPREZA SPORT (BOUGHT AT 19 MI, CURRENT 1300 MI). VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, PARKED OVERNIGHT, DURING A COLD NIGHT. THE NEXT MORNING AFTER DEFROSTING, I NOTICED A SMALL, 2' CRACK ORIGINATING FROM THE LOWER CENTER WINDSHIELD. UPON INSPECTION, THERE WAS NO MARK OF CONTACT BY DEBRIS. OVER THE COURSE OF THE DAY, THE CRACK GREW UP TO 10 INCHES. CONTACT MADE TO DEALERSHIP ABOUT DEFECT.

WAS TRAVELING DOWN A HIGHWAY WHEN A VEHICLE CHANGED LANES, SPRAYING A LITTLE BIT OF SAND ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. SUDDENLY MY WINDSHIELD DEVELOPED A 10 INCH "L" SHAPED CRACK, STARTING FROM THE LEFT EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD (ABOUT HALF WAY UP) AND CONTINUED STRAIGHT ACROSS TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD.

MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND OFF, PARKED AT MY HOME. AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK THAT AFTERNOON, I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD. THIS CRACK WAS NOT THERE AFTER I FINISHED RUNNING AN ERRAND THAT MORNING. IT HAD TO HAVE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN USE AND STATIONARY. THERE IS NO CRACK OR CHIP TO INDICATE ANY IMPACT WITH ANY EXTERNAL OBJECT. THE CRACK ORIGINATES AT THE BOTTOM CORNER WHERE THE WINDSHIELD MEETS THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. (PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTO) THIS INDICATES TO ME, A FACTORY DEFECT. TO CLARIFY, I PLACED TAPE ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD TO MARK THE END OF THE CRACK. THIS IS NOT TO BE CONFUSED AS A CHIP OR MARK OF IMPACT.

SMALL ROCK HIT THE WINDSHIELD AS BROKE VERY EASY. SEEING A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THEY ARE BREAKING EASY. COST $987.00 TO REPAIR. HAVE ALL RECEIPTS WILL PROVIDE IF NEEDED.

WINDSHIELD CRACKED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS

A CRACK BEGAN AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD JUST AT THE MEETING OF THE ROOF. THERE WAS NO NOTICEABLE INDENTION OF MARK OF A OBJECT IMPACTING THE WINDSHIELD. IT WAS OBSERVED FIRST THING IN THE MORNING WHILE IN THE DRIVEWAY - NOT ON THE ROAD.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I LOOKED UP AND SAW THE CRACK START AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD. I PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE AND IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE SITTING IN MY GARAGE. I DIDN'T HIT ANY ROCKS OR ENCOUNTER ANY UNUSUAL DRIVING CONDITIONS.

WITH 7,000 MILES ON IT, ONLY A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I'VE HEARD THIS IS VERY COMMON AND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST SUBARU FOR IT. THE PATTERN IN WHICH MINE CRACKED IS SIMILAR TO WHAT OTHERS HAVE POSTED IN IMPREZA OWNERS FORUMS WHICH TELLS ME IT'S LIKELY A DEFECT AND NOT A TYPICAL CRACK.

APPROXIMATELY A 24 INCH LONG CRACK IN MY FRONT WINDSHIELD

A CRACK APPEARED ON THE WINDSHIELD WHILE IT WAS PARKED SO THERE WAS NO IMPACT ON THE GLASS WHEN IT OCCURRED. *TR

MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED IT ABOUT 2500 MILES. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A STONE CHIP HOWEVER I DIDN'T SEE ONE. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND IT CRACKED IN THE MIDDLE HORIZONTALLY JUST BELOW THE REARVIEW MIRROR. THE TWO CRACKS WERE NOT CONNECTED INITIALLY. HOWEVER I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THEY DID CONNECT.

BOUGHT THE CAR 12/21 FIRST WINDSHIELD CRACKED 1/28 WHILE SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY OVER THE WEEKEND.
