I have an aftermarket pinketon glass on another car. Frankly, on that car, it seemed more durable than the factory glass.
No problem w replaced our 4th with a Pilkington! The first 3 with OEM - big mistake x 3. The last was a Pilkington and it’s lasted many times longer than the other 3 OEMs combined. We also think it’s taken some hits that would have definitely shattered an OEM.
I replaced my cracked windshield with OEE glass, which was Pilkington EZ Kool. The shop recalibrated my camera for the pre-collision assist, and it's functioned like normal.
Aftermarket. Pilkington if given a choice.
Not only is Subaru (Carlex) glass not required, you don't even want it if given a choice. Go for aftermarket glass, Pilkington if you can. Zero issues with eyesight after calibration.
Had one the next day and they did a great job with a OEM windshield. No issues.
When I broke mine the repair shop installed "yesglass" It's a Pilkington brand, but worse on paper.
I put an OEM glass in an ExST and it fit like shit, had to cut it out and redo it and it still wouldn't line up like before.
Broncos came with a very shitty windshield that easily continues to crack if you have rock chips and excessive heat
Just search windshield in this sub and you'll find many like minded souls. The OEM windows are paper thin and prone to chips, cracks, and tiny chips that turn into 3 foot cracks.
