Windshield OEM Subaru or OEM Honda
Reviews
The aftermarket glass may work well - but I can tell you with great confidence that the OEM glass is much less likely to deviate from what came in your new Subaru.
Pros: OEM glass is better
Cons: aftermarket glass deviates
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mine cracked, waited 6 months for the windshiled to come in. Finally got it fixed. A week later it cracked again from a small rock. Just got it fixed again and now theres a small chip in it. The 23 HRV is so cheap i dont care to get it fixed anymore.
Cons: cracked repeatedly, poor quality, long wait for replacement
Vehicle:
Honda
I love the car a 22 outback wilderness and have had for just over 2 years got in September 21 and just had my 5th windshield replaced. This is the first window that isn\u2019t oem so wish me luck.
Cons: windshield replaced multiple times
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
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
Don't get the OEM glass. That shit is brittle. I made the mistake of going OEM last year and barely made it 7 months before it needed to be replaced again. I'm almost certain the OEM glass would have cracked.
Cons: brittle, short lifespan
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I despise Subaru windshields with a passion. I think they make them from eggshells. NEVER a cracked windshield - in DECADES of driving hundreds of thousands of miles - for any non-Subaru vehicle OR Subaru vehicles without the acoustic glass. But 5 replacements on two cars in past 5 years.
Cons: fragile, frequent replacements
My girlfriends cracked the same way around the same amount of mileage. Seems like a design flaw.
Cons: design flaw, cracked easily
