Vehicle was parked for four and a half days in a public garage, with which I pay for monthly parking. Upon my request, vehicle was waiting for me to pick it up. The vehicle seemed to be intact. Just after leaving the garage, I used the front, then the back wipers to clean the windshields. The back (hatch) windshield completely shattered into the vehicle. Nothing hit it, no accidents with other vehicles or objects occurred. While no one was hurt, the incident was alarming. The integrity and strength of a vehicle's windows/ and windshields are important. There was no prior warning or alert.

WE WERE DRIVING SOUTH ON 275 BETWEEN 8MILE AND 7MILE IN MICHIGAN IN OUR 2019 SUBARU OUTBACK AND OUT OF NOWHERE WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A PISTOL BEING SHOT NEXT TO OUR EARS WENT OFF AND GLASS CAME POURING IN FROM THE SUNROOF. WHAT HAPPENED WAS THE SUNROOF EXPLODED OUT OF NOWHERE. WHILE DRIVING 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. WE CONTACTED SUBARU OF AMERICA AND THEY TOLD US THAT WITHOUT EVERY SHARD OF GLASS FOR THEM TO INSPECT WE COULD NOT PROVE THAT IT WAS A DEFECT. HOWEVER LET ME MAKE A NOTE THERE WERE NOT CARS VERY CLOSE TO US, WE WEREN'T GOING UNDER A BRIDGE AND THERE WASN'T ANY ONE THROWING THINGS ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. HOWEVER SUBARU BLAMED AN IMAGINARY PEBBLE THAT HIT THE TOP OF THE SUNROOF DEAD ON AND THAT IMAGINARY PEBBLE DID NOT END UP INSIDE OF OUR CAR.

I PURCHASED A 2019 SUBARU OUTBACK IN DECEMBER 2018 AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD THREE TIMES IN JUST OVER TWO YEARS (JUNE 2019, NOVEMBER 2020, APRIL 2021). I OWNED A 2006 SUBARU OUTBACK FOR OVER 10 YEARS AND NEVER HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS A SAFETY RISK AND A DESIGN FLAW AND IT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED.
