Pilkington Windshield

  • Chips/cracks:

My first two windshields were Carlex brand, and they were trash. Both chipped multiple times from minor rock chips that ended up spiderwebbing even after repair. Anything has to be better than Carlex.

My 3rd and current windshield is Pilkington and so far seems great. Shrugged off a pretty nasty rock hit with barely a scuff.

Pros: shrugged off rock hit
Cons: chips, spiderwebbing after repair

Pilkington Windshield

I was able to find a small specialist shop that did mine for $400 flat. Not OEM but Pilkinton. I did not have him do the calibration, he said you don't need it if the install is done correctly. I have had zero issues since.

Pros: zero issues

Replaced with my current glass which is Pilkington and it's been like 7 months without chips or cracks, which is the longest I've had an immaculate windshield in the entire time I've owned the car.

Pros: no chips or cracks

CMBS cameras not properly calibrated since windshield replacement. Dealer believes glass marked “Honda” will fix calibration issue because “there is too much metal” in the Pilkington glass.

Cons: CMBS cameras not calibrated
Vehicle: Honda Accord

Not knowing any better, I didn't specify an OEM windshield, and they installed one from Pilkington. It fit fine, and I didn't see any issues, other than not liking the shading/dot pattern around the rearview mirror as much. It was acoustic glass and it seemed to look (and sound) identical. However, my Ford dealer could not get the Lane Keeping Assist system to calibrate with it. It just wouldn't work properly, and they ended up deactivating it. Aftermarket windshield screws up Lane Keeping Assist!

Pros: fit fine, acoustic glass, looked identical
Cons: LKA calibration failed, disliked shading pattern
Vehicle: Ford Fusion
