I despise Subaru windshields with a passion. I think they make them from eggshells. NEVER a cracked windshield - in DECADES of driving hundreds of thousands of miles - for any non-Subaru vehicle OR Subaru vehicles without the acoustic glass. But 5 replacements on two cars in past 5 years.
Safelight with Subaru OEM glass cost me $640. No issues 18 months later.
yep the OEM is weak af. I went to a local shop and paid $325 in Chicago. Works great, eyesight works perfectly, and glass is much stronger.
Subaru glass is trash. There's no way anyone in their right mind would ever use another subaru windshield if they weren't forced to. The OE windscreens have fine debris or bubbles or something in them that makes them look like they have been sandblasted for 200k highway miles when they're brand new. It's actually dangerous when driving into the sun. And this is the case on every one of their models. Subaru glass is total trash.
I am looking at replacing my windshield with an aftermarket product to see if it’s a quality issue.
I just think their windshield is shit.
My outback right now is cracked.
I had a rock thrown and couldn't see where it hit because it was right under a wiper blade. Next morning after sun hit it, the fucking crack was 2' long in every direction. Didn't even have a chance to get a repair... Place that replaced it, couldn't get the eyesight to calibrate, so had no cruise control for a month as they waited for an OEM to replace the replacement. Dropped it for replacement and 4 hours later they said, we got it to calibrate, no need to replace. three months later, another rock and shattered. They seem fragile as fuck.
There are ongoing known issues with Forester windshields being extremely fragile. Unfortunately, they’re also very expensive to replace because the Eyesight has to be recalibrated.
I’ve replaced three Subaru windshields via safelite with no recalibration and everything works fine with the cameras and sensors.
