My 2018 Outback needed a new windshield already and Subaru says to use only Subaru OEM glass because it's made for the EyeSight cameras. They say it needs re-calibration also.
Pros: OEM glass made for cameras
Cons: needs re-calibration
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I had a rock thrown and couldn't see where it hit because it was right under a wiper blade. Next morning after sun hit it, the fucking crack was 2' long in every direction. Didn't even have a chance to get a repair... Place that replaced it, couldn't get the eyesight to calibrate, so had no cruise control for a month as they waited for an OEM to replace the replacement. Dropped it for replacement and 4 hours later they said, we got it to calibrate, no need to replace. three months later, another rock and shattered. They seem fragile as fuck.
Cons: fragile, shattered easily, calibration issues

Subaru Forester
There are ongoing known issues with Forester windshields being extremely fragile. Unfortunately, they’re also very expensive to replace because the Eyesight has to be recalibrated.
Cons: extremely fragile, expensive to replace

When I had my 2015 forester I replaced 4 windshields. First 3 were oem, they seemed to crack pretty easy.
Cons: cracked easily

I have a 2015 Forester and the stock windshield was by far the most easily chipped windshield I've ever had in a vehicle. Seemed to chip much easier than the glass on the 2010 Impreza I had before. I guess what I'm saying is I don't think Subaru glass is that great, at least for my model.
Cons: easily chipped, poor durability
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
The new windshield last 3 weeks before we had to do it all again. Each crack 16” to 20” with no visible impact.
Cons: cracked quickly, poor durability
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I have a 2022 OBW. Windshield is absolutely messed up with cracks yet no damage was present. I’m starting to think these windows are decrepit shit pots haha
Cons: messed up with cracks, decrepit quality

I have a 17 outback and have replaced windshield three times already. First when I had less than 1k miles.
Cons: replaced three times

Mileage: 1000 km
I had a rock hit the windshield when driving in Los Angeles (right before getting to Disney Land), the next day it was a full blown crack across my entire windshield.
Cons: full blown crack
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
My 2019 Crosstrek developed a crack about 6 months after I bought it, no chips from rocks or anything, I am still dealing with my local dealership to get it fixed almost a year later
Cons: crack developed easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
