Just replaced the windshield on our brand new 2025. Took a rock a couple days after buying it. My insurance subs all glass claims to Safelite Solutions, but gave me the option to use whomever I wanted. Since the car was new, I wanted official Subaru glass on it, so I went with the dealer.
Pros: official Subaru glass
Vehicle:
Subaru
Had our 17 forester's windshield replaced and the eyesight recalibrate afterwards. Oem subaru windshield. They didn't tighten the rear view mirror back on though. Took a sec to do that myself.
Pros: OEM Subaru windshield
Cons: mirror not tightened
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Just got a rock chip on my 2025 Ascent with only 2400 miles. We weren't anywhere close to the car in front of us so we don't even understand how it happened. On the edge of the black area around all the camera stuff. Heading to get it repaired now so it hopefully doesn't spread. Wish us luck.
Cons: rock chip, happened unexpectedly
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 2400 km
2025 Forester purchased in early June already has 2 of these chips. We have never experienced this in any of our past vehicles, including an Outback that was part of the class action class. This is an obvious quality issue.
Cons: prone to chipping, quality issue
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
I've had lots of issues with it (I've replaced 3 windshields in my first ~21 years of driving and ~10 in 10 years with the subarus with eyesight).
Cons: lots of issues, frequent replacements

Man Subaru glasses probably some of the worst I've ever seen. I've owned a WRX since 2020 both VA and VB at this point I wasn't able to get 4 months into my VB before I replace the windshield.
Cons: worst glasses ever
Vehicle:
Subaru
