Pilkington>Carlex
Pilkington is waaaaay superior to whatever OEM supplier they use. Porsche, Land Rover, and many other luxury brands use Pilkington for their glass, and it holds up very well! My Cayenne's windshield is absolutely battered, and it's still on its original glass from 2012.
2015 and got a plinkton front windshield after oem cracked within a year, in all these years it’s taken quite a few rocks with no damage at all, I’m quite happy with it.
You are totally good with Pilkington glass though I had Safelite replace my old Jetta with that brand and it’s as good if not better than OEM glass.
After our OEM windshield was demolished, it was replaced with Pilkington auto glass. And that Pilkington glass is FAR superior to OEM Subaru glass!
The Pilkington windshield is fine, but the rain sensor has been much glitchier than with the original windshield.
It is the first car I had that ever got a chip in which lead to a growing crack.
Within the first 6 months of having my 2022 Crosstrek, I had two chips that needed to be filled so they didn't spider. Definitely chips more easily than other cars, at least from my experience.
The windshield is by far my biggest complaint. My first week of owning it I got a nice big rock chip. My first winter I guess a small rock got stuck in the wiper and made a 5 inch scrape. My old Subaru’s windshield seems so much more durable.
I’m on my third windshield on my 2019. It’s the only part about it I’ve had to spend money on really.
