Windshield OEM Toyota or OEM Subaru
Reviews
I’ve replaced three Subaru windshields via safelite with no recalibration and everything works fine with the cameras and sensors.
Pros: everything works fine, cameras and sensors
Vehicle:
Subaru
I had the same problem with the plastic piece that attaches to the windshield on my ‘16. Took to the dealership. All was good. Glue from the factory isn’t that good.
Pros: dealership fixed it
Cons: factory glue not good
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
It is the first car I had that ever got a chip in which lead to a growing crack.
Cons: chips easily, cracks grow
Vehicle:
Subaru
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.
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
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.
Cons: chips easily, scrapes easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
I’m on my third windshield on my 2019. It’s the only part about it I’ve had to spend money on really.
Cons: poor durability, frequent replacement
Vehicle:
Subaru
I now have a 2024 crosstrek and the windshield cracked within the first 6 months too. This time it was a tiny pebble that hit right on the edge of the passenger side A pillar. They must use very brittle glass.
Cons: cracked easily, brittle glass
Vehicle:
Subaru
Now have a 2024 Crosstrek Wilderness and 2 days after I got it I found a chip in the windshield. I would say yes, the newer ones chip easier but that’s just my experience so far.
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
Just noticed a small chip in my current Crosstrek (2021). Prior to owning a crosstrek, I’ve never had even the SLIGHTEST amount of damage to my windshield.
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
2022 Sport at 15k miles and the windshield has a few noticeable chips. It is only rarely driven on the interstate. It does seem unusual considering my Tesla Model 3 with 30k miles does not have a single noticeable chip.
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 15000 km
