Figured I should close out this thread by saying I did order the windshield after spending some time with the dealer and their computer. They told me no returns on it if I am wrong about it being the windshield. So $975 (before install costs) later it came in this week and is indeed the windshield.
Mazda 3 3rd gen and cx5 2nd gen here, hundreds of thousands of kms, no chips in the windshield.
My CX-30 just got hit by a sizable rock that flew off a pickup hauling hay on the freeway yesterday and it came out unscathed. I was sure I was about to eat a windshield but the glass was surprisingly durable.
I just had my windshield replaced; I've noticed a slight visual ripple at the base of the windshield on the passenger side. Since it's right at the base it's not something that causes any weirdness while driving. I can't say I even noticed anything with the previous windshield.
Yep. 22 turbo already has a chip. I bought the dent and windshield repair coverage. Will be calling them soon.
Mines 3 months old and the windscreen has a crack straight through it from a stone getting kicked up on the motorway, the chip in the centre of the crack itself isn't that large or deep.
Yup we got one on our 2023 GT within 3 weeks. Got another one about 5 months later. Seems to be a weak windshield?
I had four stone chips in the last 18 months. Two in the span of just six days last month. The luck of the Irish for my windshield indeed on the CX-5.
1 year in and car has about 2 noticeable chips, one directly in drivers POV and other in corner of passanger with a splatter effect of chips throughout.
Not sure if it’s the sharp angle or design of the windshield/material… however super disappointing.
ABSOLUTELY, I have had my cx5 for two weeks and got hit by two rocks on a road trip, both caused huge cracks in the windshield. I was actually pretty impressed with how fragile the glass is.
