Description of the problem	My wife was driving our outback around town when she noticed a small crack in the center windshield, just below the mirror attachment point. She did not recall any major stone or gravel hits (other than the usual dust/debris on new england roads). Later that day the crack had spread to approximately 6" and then three days later (in the interim, she went into labor and had a baby), the crack had expanded to nearly the length of the windshield. We immediately called both the dealer and our insurance company. As is stated elsewhere on the ntsb complaint site, the only windshields available for the 2015 outback are factory, oem units - which are on back order from most dealers and glass replacement companies. Given the overall number of complaints about windshield cracking (both here and available through various other automotive sites), i believe that subaru should work to fix an obvious issue with the glass.
