I've gotten 3 volvo xc90 windshields replaced, all volvo brand at safelite. The 3rd one has been holding up fine.
Pros: holding up fine
Vehicle:
Volvo XC90
You may not actually need the recalibration… if you have a heads up display, that’s probably different but otherwise it may not be necessary at all. Went through this with my 21 RAV, lots of places tell me, I would need to take it to the dealer for calibration after the new glass. The place I went to said to try it out first and then decide if you need it because a lot of times through replacement does not affect anything. so I got the new glass and drove off, no issues no need for recalibration. The windshield cracked and a construction zone about six months after I got the car. It’s been a couple years and about 80,000 miles since then. No complaints or problems with any of the sensing pack, works like the day I brought it home
Pros: no issues, works perfectly
Cons: recalibration may be unnecessary

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

Owned 3 weeks, getting replaced Wednesday. I was parked in my garage for a week while I was out of town… came back to a crack (no kids, no pets, nothing from ceiling). Crack almost dead center starting from bottom, no chips or impact marks. Drove to windshield repair place 5 miles away, it had grown. The said it could still be fixed and couldn’t find any impact marks. Made appt for next day, by then crack had tripled in dive just sitting in the garage. Now being replaced with non-OEM glass since OEM glass sucks.
Cons: cracked without impact, crack grew rapidly, poor OEM quality

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

Toyota Venza
Toyota OEM glass sucks - I had a 4Runner whose windshield would crack if you looked at it wrong, and my Tacoma didn't even make it 6 months before the windshield cracked. Dad's Highlander cracked within 6 months as well.
Cons: prone to cracking, low durability, short lifespan
Vehicle:
Toyota Highlander
I’ve just got a 25 platinum, had it just over a month and have both a chip and crack. I’ve never owned a vehicle that had this happen let alone this quickly.
Cons: chipped and cracked quickly, poor durability
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
