Windshield OEM Hyundai or OEM KIA
Reviews
I took my car 5N to Safelite and they did a phenomenally good job. Because the car is so new, there are no 3rd party replacements available, such as PPG. So I have a OEM Hyundai windshield as a replacement. All calibrations were done perfectly, and the job took only a few hours. This isn't an ad for Safelite, just truthfully sharing my experience.
Pros: phenomenally good job
Vehicle:
Hyundai
My windshield was replaced with the windshield from the dealership and it fixed it.
Pros: fixed issue
Vehicle:
Kia
I have a 2023 Sportage SX and got a rock chip within the first month of owning it. Just got another one last month. Both while driving on the interstate. My husband was driving for the second one and didn't even know a rock had hit it, that's how small the rock had to have been. I had 3 Mazda 3's before this and never had any rock chips during those 7 years driving the same roads. I definitely think its the windshield.
Cons: rock chip within month, chips from small rocks
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
I purchased a certified pre-owned 18 Optima in 2020, and maybe months later, a little crack started out of nowhere right at the start of the top of the windshield. Over time, it spread all the way to the bottom in two different directions.
Cons: crack started out of nowhere, crack spread
Vehicle:
Kia Optima
Had ours crack in the same week and those Kia windshields are not cheap
Cons: cracked quickly, expensive
My 23 Sportage windshield cracked from the tiniest pebble hitting it. The pebble sound was barely audible. Meanwhile boulders have rained on my 2016 Flex and it’s never left a mark, let alone a crack. The windshield quality on Kia’s are crap.
Cons: cracked from tiny pebble, poor quality
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
Mines cracked on me within 6 months.... rock smacked it from a stupid truck with after market tires... Not even 24hrs later, whole line through the windshield. One time some large construction vehicle on the opposite side of the road fling something at my shield. It was really weird, my lady was with me, and she was also confused how it happened. it left a scratch on the glass, thankfully it never turned into nothing more.
Cons: cracked within 6 months, cracked quickly
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
This is the 3rd time I’m going to have to replace my windshield this year because you even look at it the wrong way and the glass cracks. Not really, but you’d think the top of the line trim would have glass that is more durable. Never had this issue with any other car I’ve had.
Cons: glass cracks easily, not durable
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
I am currently 1 month in waiting for my windshield from Hyundai. I had my car not 2 months when my windshield was hit on the highway by what had to be a small rock and the crack began immediately straight across to other side. It's crazy to have to wait so long for this part and it's my only means of transportation so it has been difficult. It's the backorder and waiting from Hyundai for a simple windshield that is frustrating!!
Cons: cracked immediately, long wait time, frustrating backorder
Bought mines in 2022 an this is my third time replacing the windshield. I have a 2022 hundai venue.
Cons: frequent replacement
Vehicle:
Hyundai
