Pilkington auto glass for our replacement windshield. Pilkington glass is FAR superior to Subaru’s OEM glass. It’s taken some small rock hits on the highway with no problems whatsoever.
Safelite got me OEM didn't have to pay much since Geiko covered it. I only paid 50 bucks. Safelite are certified in calibrating. Well it rained in California and sensors work perfectly the same as before.
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.
We've owned several Mazdas for the last 10-15 years. We had one windshield crack after being hit by a rock from a passing truck. After years of use, we've had no issues with cracked windshields.
I’m on my fourth windshield so far. I try to give semi‘s a wide berth and have a respectable following distance, but no luck. Worst was having to replace the windshield twice within a year.
The OEM one seems quite fragile.
My previous car was a ‘21 Mazda 3. The factory windshield was SO fragile in my opinion. Granted I live in AZ where rock chips are extremely common. I had 3 chips that quickly turned into 3 huge cracks within about a 6 month time frame.
