I had the same problem with the plastic piece that attaches to the windshield on my ‘16. Took to the dealership. All was good. Glue from the factory isn’t that good.
When I had my 2015 forester I replaced 4 windshields. First 3 were oem, they seemed to crack pretty easy.
I have a 2015 Forester and the stock windshield was by far the most easily chipped windshield I've ever had in a vehicle. Seemed to chip much easier than the glass on the 2010 Impreza I had before. I guess what I'm saying is I don't think Subaru glass is that great, at least for my model.
The new windshield last 3 weeks before we had to do it all again. Each crack 16” to 20” with no visible impact.
I have a 2022 OBW. Windshield is absolutely messed up with cracks yet no damage was present. I’m starting to think these windows are decrepit shit pots haha
had a large rock destroy the windshield of our Forester with EyeSight. The third-party shop (SafeLite) replaced it with OEM Subaru glass and recalibrated the EyeSight, and for the few months between then and trading it in we had no issues with the EyeSight at all.
The aftermarket glass may work well - but I can tell you with great confidence that the OEM glass is much less likely to deviate from what came in your new Subaru.
I have a 17 outback and have replaced windshield three times already. First when I had less than 1k miles.
I had a rock hit the windshield when driving in Los Angeles (right before getting to Disney Land), the next day it was a full blown crack across my entire windshield.
My 2019 Crosstrek developed a crack about 6 months after I bought it, no chips from rocks or anything, I am still dealing with my local dealership to get it fixed almost a year later
