Windshield Tesla or OEM Honda
I got a brand new windshield on my M3 for $100. My insurance took care of the rest. I went through Tesla because I didn’t want to be dealing with this same exact BS that they are trying to run on you.
Pros: new windshield for $100
Cons: had to wait 3 weeks
Model3 in San Diego. Got it replaced and calibrated by Tesla service for $943.
I went with Tesla and was glad - they did the camera calibration and mobile tech came out a few days later to fix moisture issue. Also, sounds silly, but installed the windshield straight.
Pros: camera calibration included, installed straight
Cons: moisture issue
I also have a cracked windshield
Cons: cracked
My girlfriend is in the same EXACT position as you. <1000miles on 2023 Honda HR-V and a rock hit a similar place as yours leaving a very similar crack as yours. Could be cheap glass, could be a structural integrity issue where the glass is just extra fragile at that area of glass directly above the wipers
Cons: cheap glass, extra fragile
Vehicle:
Honda
Mileage: 1600 km
My pre-COVID 2019 HR-V took a rock to the windshield and also cracked. The full bill ended up being $1,500 before insurance. Having to re-calibrate the camera apparently adds a chunk of money.
Cons: cracked easily, expensive replacement
Vehicle:
Honda
Was driving on the highway and sure enough, a flying pebble from God hits & cracks my windshield. I can't help but feel like Honda really cheapened out on the materials post-Covid
Cons: cheapened materials, cracked easily
Mine was less than 4 months old when it developed a craxk starting at the bottom and worked its way up. Not sure why tesla windshields are so easy to crack.
Cons: easy to crack, developed crack
The Glass on Tesla vehicles is INSANELY prone to chips and cracks. I’m on my third windshield MYLR
Cons: prone to chips, prone to cracks
First winter with my Model Y and I have had 2. Luckily repaired both immediately however, one circular chip repair didn’t take very well visually, but told it will hold. My personal anecdotal experience is leading me to believe that all windshields from various car manufacturers are not the same :(
Cons: prone to chips, repair didn't take well visually
