Surprisingly no. I’ve had at least a handful of pebbles hit my windshield with no cracks while driving on the highway.

I have 14k miles on my 2023 and have no rock chips in the glass. Maybe I'm just lucky?
A couple of months ago I had a large tree branch fall as I was driving and land hard on my windshield. I was sure I was going to see cracking as the sound of the impact was incredibly loud. Nothing. Maybe it was because it fell lengthways across the entire windshield that the surface area absorbed the impact?
I had the same issue with the same sound. I topped up the coolant and at around 38 psi the noise went away and the AC functions perfectly.
id put 17 at the okay point but any lower is not good - well my subaru would do about 18-17psi at idle so im sure alls fine
Had to replace my windshield once & have had to seal two cracks.
My wife had a 2020 Forester. First windshield cracked within 3 weeks of getting the car, and we bought it right off the boat. Went through five windshields in 3.5 years.
I’ve had 2 windshields replaced within 6 months in 2021.
My 21 OB is on it's 3rd.
I have had two cracked windshields on my Impreza, and never on any other car I've owned...
