Windshield OEM FORD or CARGLASS
We love our 24 badlands in eruption green with a black top. It’s been awesome. We got 36,100km on it now. Have had to get an alignment, 1 new windshield, and a new grill because the clip that holds the front camera had broken and a piece fell out. But it’s still awesome.
Pros: awesome, fun to drive
Cons: alignment, new windshield, grill
Vehicle:
Ford Bronco
Mileage: 36100 km
If you ever need to replace a windshield, spend the extra money and get a ford windshield.
Pros: good quality
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
Just got mine fixed 2 weeks ago. Initially, it was a small crack in the top-right corner, and it extended gradually until a cold morning like -5 degrees, then it cracked across the whole windshield.

One of the main reasons I'm hanging on to my 2017 250. It's a Lariat and has some features like backup camera and some other useless features that I don't use. Hell I don't even have my phone hooked up to it. Plus it's paid off 4 years now and only has 83k miles on it. Why take on another payment.
My wife's 2018 Explorer has all the bells and whistles and I can't stand it. Her windshield has sensors in it and costs $1200 to replace it.
Pros: paid off, backup camera
Cons: useless features, expensive windshield replacement
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 83000 km
Carglasshoz legalább 10 autót vittem az elmúlt években. Minden esetben szépen dolgoztak, 2-3 óra alatt kész is. Cascos autó esetén ingyenes.
Pros: szépen dolgoztak, gyorsan kész
Ford came out today and told me this is normal in every car. I let them know I never had this issue in my Audi.

Merci pour ce retour ! J'ai rdv ce samedi chez Carglass pour remplacer mon pare-brise. Justement il y a un accord entre eux et mon assurance... Je vais m'en assurer
my ford dealership could not find a chip on the glass. can confirm it was due to the windshield defect - stress crack, they called it (but Ford Canada refuse to see it as a defect i.e. not enough data). my experience with other cars did not have this issue, such as lexus, audi, pontiac, bmw, hyundai etc. others have also reported similar problems with Ford's windshields.
Cons: windshield stress crack
My Bronco will be two years old in January. Its windshield is 3 months old... The windshield before that made it to 6 months old, AND the windshield before that was 3 months old....

I live in Alberta. No windshields survive more than 2-3 years at best. Mine lasted 3 months before it got hammered by a cobble off a gravel truck.
Cons: windshields don't survive long
