Windshield OEM Honda or OEM FORD
Unfortunately, as you can see from how much of it is parts, an OEM windshield is expensive on modern cars. It\u2019s usually worth it, as the third party windshields may not look different, but they often sound different, as Ford is increasing their use of acoustic glass
Pros: acoustic glass
Cons: expensive OEM windshield
I got an OEM Honda windshield. Install was a few hours. Looks and works just as good as new.
Pros: looks good, works like new
Vehicle:
Honda
Safelite replaced it with genuine Ford OEM glass, complete with the 75th Anniversary badging on the glass. The guy that did my glass was an absolute pro, and I can't tell the difference between the original and replacement.
Pros: genuine Ford OEM glass, absolute pro, no difference
Vehicle:
Ford
The OEM glass is nothing special to begin with. I noticed waves and/or imperfections with just about ALL the CRV's when I bought mine (23)...mine included.
Cons: waves and imperfections, nothing special
Vehicle:
Honda
My 10th gen looks like it’s been through hell. I need to replace it but I haven’t seen a point it is just going to happen again. It’s on like it’s 4 or 5th windshield since 2019
Cons: poor durability, frequent replacement
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
10th Gen owner here, and the glass on mine is garbage to every other car I’ve owned. Haven’t had to replace mine as I don’t have any huge cracks, but the windshield is full of tiny pitting all over. When I wash my car, windshield still looks like shit due to all the pitting.
Cons: garbage quality, tiny pitting
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Can confirm that 2024 Accord EX's windshield cracks easily
Cons: cracks easily
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
2025 Pilot, had a hunk of rock penetrate the windshield coming off a cow trailer when I had something like 800 miles on it
Cons: rock penetration, fragile
Vehicle:
Honda Pilot
Mileage: 800 km
My 2017 Touring glass is streaky and spotty even when fully clean. 8 years of crappy winters and dusty summers and pollen-filled springs have really made the glass age rapidly. Even during the first few years, it never seemed to get “clean enough” so that I didn’t notice the streaks and spots in full sunlight.
Cons: streaky and spotty, ages rapidly, hard to clean
Vehicle:
Honda
Yup. Got a 10-12 inch crack from the very bottom in the middle of the windshield just three days after picking up the car (less than 200 miles on the odometer). The dealership said it's not a defect and something must have hit it.
Cons: windshield cracked quickly
Mileage: 321 km
