Aftermarket glass is much more robust. My family is on our 8th Subaru and we've never replaced a Pilkington aftermarket windshield.
Definitely get aftermarket windshield. Pilkington is the one you're looking for, they're much stronger than OEM glass and eyesight works perfectly
The oem glass were made cheap, so I used a aftermarket windshield glass on my outback. Best decision I made. It\u2019s been 5 months and I have t had any issues with it.
I had my windshield replaced about 2 years ago by Safelite with Pilkington glass. They calibrated the EyeSight cameras, zero problems since then
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
I just got a Subaru Crosstrek 2019 and literally over the week a 3 inch barely noticeable crack appeared on my windshield. The crack came out of no where, wasn’t there on Thursday and is there now, noticed it Sunday :/
We had a '16 Forester XT and went through like 4 or 5 windshields in 7 years before we sold it. At one point we didn't even get the tape off the prior install and it broke again from highway rocks. It was ridiculous.
Got a big crack right in back of the rear view mirror, between the EyeSight cameras.
Subaru windshields are awful.
Subaru glass is the worst I've ever had.
