Upon pulling over to inspect, I observed a crack approximately 27 inches long, originating at the base of the windshield and extending upward into my direct line of sight. I marked the crack to monitor its progression and continued the trip with caution.  Damage Details and Observations: \u2022The crack originates from the lower edge (root) of the windshield. \u2022The crack changes direction as it extends and intersects with a small surface chip. \u2022The chip measures approximately 0.039 inches (1mm) in diameter and 0.0018 inches (0.1mm) in depth. \u2022The chip is located below the hood line and directly behind the windshield wiper bracket, in an area not easily visible during standard inspections.  Vehicle Information:  Subaru Outback Wilderness Edition which is marketed and designed with enhanced off-road capabilities relative to the standard Outback model.  Concerns: Based on the location, characteristics, and progression of the crack, I have strong doubts that this damage was caused solely by a foreign object impact (FOD).  Furthermore, even if FOD was a contributing factor, the small size and isolated position of the chip \u2014 in an area shielded by the wiper bracket \u2014 raises serious concerns about the structural integrity of the windshield itself.  The extent and propagation of the crack appear disproportionate to the damage","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"SUBARU","productModel":"OUTBACK","manufacturer":"Subaru of America, Inc."}]}]}
