had a large rock destroy the windshield of our Forester with EyeSight. The third-party shop (SafeLite) replaced it with OEM Subaru glass and recalibrated the EyeSight, and for the few months between then and trading it in we had no issues with the EyeSight at all.
Pros: no EyeSight issues
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
I have a 19 and have driven 30,000 so far, mostly highway. I’ve had pebbles hit the windows a few times, leaving a small crack once. Smaller than a dime. It’s been at least 6 months and it hasn’t grown at all.
Pros: crack didn't grow
Cons: small crack from pebbles
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Mileage: 30000 km
OEM glass is dog shit. I'm on windshield number 5 in 3 years this one has lasted the longest at 7 months.
Cons: poor durability, frequent replacement
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I’m on like my 5th windshield. I’ve got a split running across half the windshield now that I just have to live with because of these absolutely ridiculously priced windshields that will inevitably crack in less than 30 days after replacing.
Cons: prone to cracking, high price
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy
The OEM breaks very easily.
Cons: breaks very easily
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
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
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
Subaru glass is trash. There's no way anyone in their right mind would ever use another subaru windshield if they weren't forced to. The OE windscreens have fine debris or bubbles or something in them that makes them look like they have been sandblasted for 200k highway miles when they're brand new. It's actually dangerous when driving into the sun. And this is the case on every one of their models. Subaru glass is total trash.
Cons: trash, dangerous, sandblasted look
Vehicle:
Subaru
I just think their windshield is shit.
Pros: insurance covers deductible
Cons: windshield is shit
