I've got a big rock chip on mine I've been waiting for six months to spread and it won't.
Pros: chip not spreading
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
almost 4 years under my belt in this car only one crack (sustained in what can only be described as windshield death valley on I-80 in WY)
Pros: good durability
Vehicle:

Not only is Subaru (Carlex) glass not required, you don't even want it if given a choice. Go for aftermarket glass, Pilkington if you can. Zero issues with eyesight after calibration.
Pros: zero issues with eyesight
Cons: Subaru glass not desirable
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
They installed a Benson windshield which is a cheaper Chinese one but it couldn\u2019t be much worse than the original Subaru one \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f. Had a couple pebbles hit it already and no issues.
Pros: no issues with pebbles
Cons: cheaper Chinese one
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
21 tundra 1974 edition here and can confirm that its the worst quality glass ive ever owned. I live in florida and have more nicks and scratches then can count. Im amazed it hasnt fully cracked even tho theres a small crack from one of the chips
Cons: worst quality glass, many nicks and scratches, small crack
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
I’ve replaced the windshield in my Audi twice. Both replacements are inferior compared to the windshield installed from the factory. For example, the first replacement got hit by a rock and pulverized the glass. It put a hole through the glass.
Cons: replacements are inferior
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
Yes it’s garbage. Besides mentioned problems the quality overall is low: it cooks you inside of you live in southern Europe and it’s not acoustic. It’s way way below Saint Gobain
Cons: garbage, low quality, not acoustic
windshield randomly cracked in the summer heatwave. No impact yet vw refuses to replace it. These are obviously defective. Don't know what course of action is appropriate but I'm not happy.
Cons: randomly cracked, defective
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
2024 X5, yes same issue. Replaced due to a rock from a truck that was at least 5 - 7 car lengths ahead of me in the right lane. As soon as I got it back after full replacement it was hit again and cracked on the bottom passenger side. Hard to see since so low. The. My husband drove this past week and also endured a chip. I don’t believe the windshields on these are very durable. I’ve owned many cars/SUVs (we lease and trade regularly every 2-3 years). This has by far been the worst.
Cons: not durable, cracked easily, chipped easily, worst experience
Vehicle:
BMW X5
