Windshield OEM BMW or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
If you are paying out of pocket, you should insist on an OEM windshield. Otherwise, the HUD may not be clear or focused.
Pros: clear HUD, focused HUD
Vehicle:
BMW

2025 x7 m60 got the same problem front windshield cracked while parked after only having it for 3 weeks. I think bmw has a weak front windshield
Cons: cracked quickly, weak windshield
Vehicle:
BMW X7
I have a 14 year old camry with 4 similar chips in the last 8-10 years, still holding firmly, no cracks. Hyundai windshield doesn't seem to be as strong, saw another palisade owner come in for a rock chip repair while I waited.
Cons: not strong, prone to cracking
This car (or Hyundai) windshields are weak.
Cons: windshields weak
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
The new Hyundai windshields are kinda terrible and crack very easily from what I have seen and heard, so honestly you would probably be better off going aftermarket anyways
Pros: better than OEM
Cons: crack very easily
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
I have a 2023 BMW X3 M40i and have the exact same issue. The windshield cracked overnight after only having the car 6 months from new, no stone chip visible. Had it replaced with OEM glass and the replacement windshield cracked in the same place 4 months later. No sign of chip. Looks just like your photo.
Cons: windshield cracked overnight
Vehicle:
BMW X3
I have a 2018 Elantra GT sport and just had my windshield replaced due to a crack. The installer basically told me the same about my windshield. The windshield wasn't sealed to the car on the driver's side. It seems only the passenger half was sealed properly. I'm going to report this to Hyundai Canada as this is a potential safety hazard for anyone who gets into an accident or it could lead to water leak issues doen the road.
Cons: windshield not sealed, safety hazard
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
