Windshield OEM Honda or OEM Volvo
2022 Accord came to $1,500 for OEM glass through Safelite. They did great work on the windshield and calibration.
Pros: great work, good calibration
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Just had my 2022 xc60 recharge windshield replaced by Safelite (insurance coop). They used oem Volvo glass and did the recalibration at their shop near my home. All went well, and a couple weeks have gone by with lots of rain and no issues.
Pros: all went well, no issues
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
I found an independent shop who said they could do it without recalibrating - they were very careful when removing and reinstalling. I never had any issues after with smart cruise, lane keep, etc. They also claimed they didn’t need OEM glass, but we paid extra for OEM in case we needed to get calibrated at the dealer.
Pros: no issues with driver assist, careful installation
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
The glass on the SPA and CMA chips and cracks easily. I'm extremely cautious with my shield. I just hit 60k and so far have one chip that I filled immediately. I know many people that do two shields a year.
Cons: chips easily, cracks easily
Vehicle:
Volvo
Mileage: 60000 km
Within the first 2 weeks of receiving my car, while driving on the highway, I heard a pop noise on my windshield. A few hours later, A small hairline crack developed from the edge of my windsheild, and has since extended halfway across my windshield.
Cons: pop noise, hairline crack, crack extended
Vehicle:
Volvo
One morning I just saw a big crack on top windshield. I don’t know how it happen. Maybe it was a small crack before and then it just expand as the time goes by. It must be the design flaw of the windshield.
Cons: design flaw, cracked spontaneously
MINE IS AT 1500 miles and I have two TINY specks maybe even 3 on my windshield and NOTHING ever hit me
Cons: specks appeared, poor durability
Mileage: 2414 km
After less than 2 weeks of owning my HRV a rock struck my windshield and a large crack occured after I parked for work. It happened again 4 weeks ago but I immediately took it to a glass repair shop to get it sealed but as the technician did it, the crack started to become larger.
Cons: cracked easily, crack grew
Vehicle:
Honda
Had 415 miles on it. The rock hitting was minimal and created a crack almost the same location as the photo. Not bad luck, shitty glass I'm thinking
Cons: shitty glass, cracked easily
Mileage: 668 km
My girlfriends cracked the same way around the same amount of mileage. Seems like a design flaw.
Cons: design flaw, cracked easily
