After replacing my windshield twice within 5 years, I tends to believe the angle of 2019 Forester windshield makes it prone to chipping, following or not following the vehicles in the front.
Yeah Subaru windshields are crap.
We get new windshields every year here in northern BC.
Mine barely lasts a few months before a new crack appears.
I had one of those 3 months after I bought my Forester. I tend to believe there's something going on that makes them more prone to it.
i've been driving my 2023 since july of 2023, and i already have chips and one big crack spreading from the passenger side that will be repaired soon. the constant hot/cold of my area didn't help keep that small. it's annoying that my older car, driven on the same roads as this one, had nothing happen to the windshield, and the newer one can't even look at a rock without chipping.
I drive my forester for work. I’ve had 2 in the past 2.5 years and have driven them a combined 110k miles. I never cracked my windshield.
I got hit by a rock that feel off a bulldozer being towed wayyyyy ahead of me on my Forester thats only a couple months old.
This happens all the time to my Forester. My belief is the angle of the windshield must make for an extremely weak spot in that area as that’s where most of mine have begun. After the third replacement in less than two years I stopped.
my windshield on my 22 Forester has cracked due to a rock for the 3rd year in a row. Both previous times I have gotten OEM replacements, since I have been paranoid that third party wouldn’t have the Subaru logo. I was not driving fast on the highway and I wasn’t behind a truck. I even have a windshield tint so it’s even more annoying.
