Description of the problem | Two problems. 1. Replaced windshield three times in 15 months. Two were original subaru branded windshields. Original and industry replacement windshield are too brittle and thus unsafe. Any little pebble chips them and they always have a long crack within a few hours. 2. Radio system does not always function properly. At times it scrolls down and we are unable to change channels or adjust the volume. The dealer was made aware of the problem in july and would replace it since it is under warranty. Supplier has not responded to send part after four months. Subaru is non responsive to our concerns. |
