Windshield OEM Toyota or OEM Volvo
Reviews
They ordered Volvo windshields and did my recalibrations. I haven't noticed any issues.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
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

Toyota
If your car has HUD then check that the after market windshields do not blur the HUD display. On Volvos the aftermarket windshields blur the HUD image.
Cons: blurry HUD image
Vehicle:
Volvo
Had our 24 less than 9 mos- on our 3rd windshield- theres gotta be a problem
Cons: multiple replacements, poor quality
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
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
My 2024 RAV4 did the same thing.
Cons: prone to cracking
Vehicle:
Toyota
It sounds like the windshield may have been replaced with a cheap aftermarket option and not original Toyota glass. Likely the windshield installer did not install it properly or the seal around the glass has failed.
Cons: poor replacement, leaking water
Vehicle:
Toyota
21 tundra 1974 edition here and can confirm that its the worst quality glass ive ever owned. I live in florida and have more nicks and scratches then can count. Im amazed it hasnt fully cracked even tho theres a small crack from one of the chips
Cons: worst quality glass, many nicks and scratches, small crack
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
I feel like the Toyota windshield’s are shit. It was chipped and repaired 3 times before. Then a 4th rock hit it and cracked the whole thing by several feet.
Cons: poor quality, prone to chips, prone to cracking
Vehicle:
Toyota
