For my X5 M comp I go with the ultimate tire/wheel, windshield, ext maintenance (5 not 7). Curb rash one rim and you make it back… WS replacement from crack is the same. BMW glass has gotten softer and more prone.
Pros: make it back
Cons: BMW glass softer
Vehicle:
BMW X5
My Model S plan went from $15->$20 monthly and I’m keeping it. I had to replace a windshield on my BMW earlier this year at $1300 out of pocket.
Pros: cheaper than out of pocket
Cons: increase in cost
We also got a crack on our windshield while traveling on a highway. Fortunately it was smaller than the size of a 10rs coin so i used the resin kit and fixed it
Pros: resin kit fixed it
Cons: crack on windshield

Toyota
2018 BMW F30 318d: Fragile windshields? We’re on the 3rd one already. Oil filter housing was replaced at 125k km due to a cracked coolant passage. OEM unit was plastic and was replaced with a metal one. Wheel speed sensors have been replaced twice already.
Pros: routine maintenance
Cons: fragile windshields
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 130000 km
Front and rear windows kept fogging up to the point where I had to wipe the windshield with my hand just to see where I was going. Electronics were less than worthless, kept disconnecting phone from car audio
Cons: windows kept fogging up

Toyota Corolla
I have the original Toyota windsheild and it's wavy as hell. Gives me the jumpy tummy. So OEM is not always best.
Cons: wavy, gives jumpy tummy

In over 20+ years of owning BMWs, and 35 years of owning other brands, I’ve never had a windshield crack. Then yesterday my 2024 M4 X40i with 7000 miles got hit by a people and bam, not just a chip, it cracked halfway across. Unfortunately, mine is on the driver’s side, right at my eyeline.
Cons: cracked easily, chipped easily
Vehicle:
BMW M4
Mileage: 11265 km

Cons: frequent cracks, fragile
Vehicle:
BMW X3
