Surprisingly no. I’ve had at least a handful of pebbles hit my windshield with no cracks while driving on the highway.
Pros: no cracks, durable
Vehicle:
Subaru
I have 14k miles on my 2023 and have no rock chips in the glass. Maybe I'm just lucky?

I purchased my 2023 in October of 2022; I have two small chips in my windshield, both occurred within 3 months of ownership. First one was after a month going up a hill into a rocky mountain with very high winds at the time. Second time was maybe 3 months into ownership and it was from on of those large semi trucks carrying gravel lol I’ve been a lot more cautious since but I’ve put off replacing the whole windshield for 2 years.. chips have not gotten any larger but I’m currently in Southern California where the temperature doesn’t fluctuate too drastically so hopefully I can put off a little longer
Pros: chips not growing
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
The Bronco glass does seem to crack way easier than anything else I've owned. Keep in mind our weather temps in Canada can be a bit extreme though.
Cons: cracks easily, poor durability
Vehicle:
Ford Bronco
I know how to repair windshield chips to prevent them from spreading myself, but as soon as it chips in the bronco, the cracks spread like wildfire and are >6” before I get home!
Cons: cracks spread quickly, poor chip resistance
Vehicle:
Ford Bronco
I had a tiny rock hit the windshield which turned into a monster crack that should not have resulted, and so I'm convinced it was a manufacturing defect.
Cons: poor impact resistance, manufacturing defect
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
Had a subaru forester 2020 and had to replace the windshields twice and I believe at that time I paid almost 2500 in total before I upgraded to better insurance. I was always wondering how It kept breaking on me!
Cons: poor durability, frequent breakage, expensive replacement
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
my 22 legacy has had one windshield repair and I have had to fill in 3 tiny cracks the past two years of owning.
Cons: prone to cracking, frequent repairs
Vehicle:

My Forester Wilderness 24 windshield cracked a month after I got it, flying construction rock on a highway in Maryland. Couldn’t believe it
Cons: cracked quickly, poor impact resistance
Vehicle:
