Windshield Tesla or OEM KIA
My friend just cracked his Model Y Performance windshield and was quoted $1530ish to get it replaced by Tesla. There's tons of rocks on the roads here in Las Vegas and I drive a lot, so this is a no-brainer for me.
Pros: no-brainer, good value
My 2021 Tesla has things hitting the windshield. Nothing cracks.
Pros: durable windshield
Had my model 3 done through Tesla. Initial appointment was 50 days out. They contacted me a few days later and said the can do it. OEM glass installed. Excellent job. No issues.
Pros: Excellent job, no issues
Personally, I think the Kia windshields are on the thinner side. I have over 40K on my Carnival and no cracks whatsoever.
Pros: no cracks after 40K
Cons: windshields thinner side

Cons: cracked easily, first replacement ever
