Windshield OEM Toyota or OEM BMW
Reviews
I used SafeLite on my X3 and they used OEM glass and no problems. Everything works perfectly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Pros: no problems, works perfectly
Vehicle:
BMW X3
If you are paying out of pocket, you should insist on an OEM windshield. Otherwise, the HUD may not be clear or focused.
Pros: clear HUD, focused HUD
Vehicle:
BMW
528i xdrive 2014 here ..just experienced my 1st full replacement at 115k miles...just for a good reference
Pros: long lasting, good durability
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 185074 km
Safelite did my front and back glass on my 2nd gen thru my insurance . I requested OE glass for both. They had a Toyota windshield in stock, but the sliding rear glass was 30-45 days out of stock, so I went aftermarket.
Pros: Toyota windshield in stock
Cons: aftermarket rear glass subpar
Vehicle:
Toyota

Cons: chipped and cracked quickly, poor durability

2024 Toyotas seem to have very weak windshields. My 4Runner is less than a year old. In the past 4 months I have gotten Four windshield cracks from rock chips. It seems the windshields are poor quality glass.
Cons: very weak, poor quality glass, prone to cracks
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
This latest 2022 540i has been the worst on windshields. I’ve never once cracked a windshield. I’m now going on my 4th windshield in two years.
Cons: frequent cracks, fragile, worst experience
Vehicle:
BMW
My 2024 RAV4 did the same thing.
Cons: prone to cracking

Toyota
