2018 Subaru OUTBACK Visibility Wiper Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1441645
Internal NHTSA #	11064339
Manufacurer	Subaru of America, Inc.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	OUTBACK
Model Year	2018
File date	18/11/17
Component	VISIBILITY/WIPER
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There is a distorted view through the driver's side and passenger side windows. Subaru of america, and the service department at the dealership the vehicle lease was signed at, both tell me that because it's tempered glass, that's how they come. This is visible when in motion or when the vehicle is in park. It looks as though you're almost looking through a fishbowl. I've sat in numerous vehicles on the lot that all appear to be the same. I have videos of this issue, but they're unable to be uploaded since the file size is too big. Subaru is offering me a cash settlement to deal with this for the next 3 years, but i am not feeling too comfortable with taking that offer.
