Windshield OEM Toyota or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
I replaced a windshield in my 2023 Camry this year and it was $800. The Toyota dealerships near me do not replace windshields and told me to go with a local windshield replacement business. The business brought my car to the Toyota dealership after installing the new windshield to have everything calibrated.
Pros: everything calibrated
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
If you have the rain-sensing wipers, you will need OEM toyota glass because the rain sensor depends on the optical characteristics of the windscreen. My local Safelite assured me their glass would work, but it didn't (the wipers would run on random but frequent intervals), so they put in a second third-party windscreen, and it didn't work either. So I had them put in a third windscreen (they went with OEM), and everything was fine after that. OEM is an extra-cost option on the first install but it costs 40% more.
Pros: rain sensor works, correct optical characteristics
Cons: extra cost, 40% more expensive

Palisade has a notoriously crack-prone windshield. Our '22 has had 3 separate chips/cracks and 1 total replacement.
Cons: crack-prone, multiple chips

21 venza, i had it about a year, rock hit that spiderwebbed out. cost me about $1600 to replace (skipped insurance). Toyota had to special order it and claimed all the sensors need to be "recalibrated".
about 6 months later new crack, it's small but right smack dab in drivers line of site. It's smallish and hasn't grown so I've sucked it up and have lived with it for now.
If it's growing, i would suck up the replacement, the glass is shit and seems pretty common problem.
Cons: poor durability, prone to cracking
Vehicle:
Toyota Venza

Cons: cracked, unusual
Vehicle:
Hyundai

My car was parked in my driveway behind my house. Windshield was fine in the evening, the next morning it was cracked. Seems like a defect to me.
Cons: cracked overnight, possible defect

This is my second one in 4 months. I'm in Arizona, so lots of rocks and pebbles on the roads. The only other vehicle I had this many issues with was my Jeep Wrangler, that was a rock magnet, three windshields in three years.
Cons: frequent damage, rock magnet
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I lost two myself, also my first ever.
Cons: lost two windshields
Vehicle:
Hyundai
These windshields are shit. I didn’t even get 500 miles before mine cracked by an object so small I didn’t even notice it until the following day.
Cons: poor quality, cracked easily
Vehicle:
Hyundai
Mileage: 805 km
