Windshield OEM Mazda or OEM Volvo
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 have a 2020 CX5 GT and had to replace the windshield. It took two months to get the OEM windshield. It was worth the wait.
Pros: worth the wait
Vehicle:
Mazda
I asked the dealer to replace the windshield and they did, I was in a loaner for a week while they had the car, waiting for the windshield and installation. All the cameras and sensors work for.
Pros: cameras and sensors work
Vehicle:
Mazda
I have this problem in my cx30! I get incredibly nauseous from driving about 15 minutes. After 5 weeks of going back and forth with Mazda, they agreed to replace it under warranty.
Cons: nauseous, glass distortion

At least for NA the newer generation mazdas 2019+, which have an edgeless design are more prone then any previous generation to crack or spiderweb. I see it all the time on the Mazda 3, cx-5 and cx-30. My girlfriend's windshield cracked after sitting in the garage over a weekend. The new premium look is nice but the build issues.
Pros: nice premium look
Cons: prone to crack, build issues
Replaced the windshield on my 2023 CX-50 within the first 6 months. I've never had to replace a windshield on any of my previous Mazdas.
Cons: needed early replacement

Mazda
We didn’t get any cracks in the few years we had a CX-30 but it’s definitely on the softer side as far as hardness goes. There were so many small nicks like any and all debris would sandblast it.
Pros: no cracks
Cons: soft, many small nicks

'22 CX-30. Got a chip in my windshield about 3 months after buying it. I do a lot of highway driving and try to avoid driving behind big trucks that kick up a lot of debris but sometimes its unavoidable.
Cons: chipped easily
Vehicle:
Mazda
I never scratched a windshield in my life until my 2024 Mazda. In the first month! The squeegee put an 8” scratch right in my line of sight. It drives me crazy.
Cons: scratched easily, scratch in line of sight
Vehicle:
Mazda
My 2020 CX-5 cracked windshield twice since last year. It's probably the original Mazda branded windshield that is an issue. I drive normal within city, so not much freeway driving at all
Cons: cracked easily, cracked twice
Vehicle:
