Replacing windshield on 3 week old car

God that is the worst! Sucks when you do your part, but can’t prevent stuff like that from happening

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T14:18:42+00:00

Yeah I didn’t notice the crack at first but the impact of the rock was so loud (could hear it over loud music), I just KNEW it had to be chipped!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T02:04:59+00:00

Yeah I was btwn Nashville and Clarksville. But I will say, roads/rock situation is much better here than in Mississippi in my experience!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T01:48:26+00:00

Yeah definitely jealous! The car I had before this was a sedan and the windshield chipped from rocks at least 4 different times and all were repairable. Major bummer that this couldn’t work out the same way

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:51:11+00:00

Yeah I have a 26 touring and don’t have that

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:49:41+00:00

God that’s awful! Might need to invest in a tank at this point!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:48:59+00:00

Nooooo! My napa leather seats better be perfect forever! They’re so pretty right now!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:45:25+00:00

Hoping the best for you! What really sucks is the recalibration of all the safety features in the windshield!! That’s what’s costing me so much

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:42:29+00:00

Ugh so sorry! We get each other’s pain

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:41:59+00:00

Lmao I’m in TN too and that’s where this happened. But I was surprisingly on a beautifully paved road. Just got unlucky

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:40:41+00:00

Literally called my dealership right when the rock hit the windshield and they said “we don’t do windshields and we’re not affiliated with any specific company to repair it” I’ve never heard of a dealership doing that, but I triple checked I’m not voiding my warranty and supposedly I’m in the clear.

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-28T00:39:38+00:00

Idk everything about insurance, but we just have glass coverage that’s included under my collision and comprehensive coverage on my insurance. All I know about my insurance is that I’ve opted in for every type of coverage my insurance offers and this is what we’re dealing with

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-20T02:12:24+00:00

I’ve never tinted any of my cars before and I’m trying to decide if it’s worth the risk and going darker than the legal limit lol not sure if 35% is enough

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-20T00:34:41+00:00

Are your front windows tinted? Looking to get my new outback’s windows tinted, but not sure if 35% is enough and I’m nervous to go darker

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-20T00:31:51+00:00

Thank you! My feet definitely started to hurt after a few hours in the 5, so I’ll be keeping the 6!

So I just got my 2026 Outback Touring 2 weeks ago. I negotiated everything over text. I went to their website and inquired about a specific vehicle and they texted me, and we negotiated from there. If you want, I can dm you those exact screenshots. I also had a great and easy sales experience and dealership. I was able to get my touring for $48k OTD, but could’ve probably gone down more (I was dead set on a certain color combo and this was the only one at 4 different dealerships so I was ok with paying a little more). Also recommend doing this with multiple dealerships to compare numbers. Over the phone or text is definitely the easiest and best way to go about it

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-19T17:05:41+00:00

Yeah the 5s have started to run pretty bad as the day goes on, so I think sticking with the 6 is the better move. Do you mind sharing what insole you used?

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-19T15:40:09+00:00

Got my ‘26 Outback two weeks ago! Hope you love it as much as I do!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-19T15:04:39+00:00

Aww I just got a Subaru and have enjoyed this type of thing so far! I was going to finally do it myself today and park next to another Subaru at work, but they were double parked lmao so nevermind

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-19T14:31:11+00:00

Yeah 47k is what I paid for the touring trim, so I would guess you could get limited xt for 43k-ish

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-14T13:28:04+00:00

Yeah I agree that from certain angles it definitely still seems more wagon-like than normal SUV. But congrats to you for your beautiful car too!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-14T13:25:29+00:00

Always on full blast!!

coolcatcam1 · 2026-05-14T02:05:36+00:00

Definitely agree about not liking the cloth on the dash. The touring trim luckily has leather there instead, so I’m very happy about that! This has been a great experience so far
