Owner reviews for windshield
I had my old windshield replaced through my insurance. The repair shop would use a cheap replacement windshield which in turn didn't sit well on the car and even the VIN number was obscured. It was so bad I was appalled! After some back and forth, I eventually got it replaced again with an OEM one and it looks much better.
I once got an after market replacement and hud was blurry and not usable. Insurance finally approved OEM.
My insurance made me go after market and it took 3 windshields before OEM was approved. The HUD was blurry or on a slat. Or both. It gave me a headache. Once the OEM was in it was perfect again.
I went 12 months with no new windshield. Then I’ve had 2 in 3 months. It’s luck of the draw and the angle of the windshield.
2024 Toyotas seem to have very weak windshields. My 4Runner is less than a year old. In the past 4 months I have gotten Four windshield cracks from rock chips. It seems the windshields are poor quality glass.
This latest 2022 540i has been the worst on windshields. I’ve never once cracked a windshield. I’m now going on my 4th windshield in two years.
The optical quality of the Mazda branded glass is absolute trash. Major waves looking to the right and straight ahead is like looking at distance through reading glasses. This Mazda stamped glass is so bad it's a safety issue. Additionally, there were issues getting the camera calibrated; the lane keeping basically didn't work at all after replacement and is still not 100%.
I’ve replaced 5 windshields on my 2015 Forester ! It even looks at a rock and it cracks.
Subaru glass is terrible.
