Remember you can get an OEM windshield from them but this doesn\u2019t mean it will be set perfect since a human is actually installing it instead of a robot. If your windshield didn\u2019t have a logo it wasn\u2019t OEM.
Pros: OEM windshield available
Cons: human installation
My 2018 Outback needed a new windshield already and Subaru says to use only Subaru OEM glass because it's made for the EyeSight cameras. They say it needs re-calibration also.
Pros: OEM glass made for cameras
Cons: needs re-calibration
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
My CPO had a fairly pitted windshield on delivery. Luckily it was replaced for delamination, the new one is holding up OK.
Pros: new one holding up
Cons: pitted on delivery, delamination
I had a rock hit the windshield when driving in Los Angeles (right before getting to Disney Land), the next day it was a full blown crack across my entire windshield.
Cons: full blown crack
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I would say the chipping in my 2018 Tesla Model 3 windshield is unlike I have seen from my past vehicles, and extensive.
Cons: extensive chipping
My 2019 Crosstrek developed a crack about 6 months after I bought it, no chips from rocks or anything, I am still dealing with my local dealership to get it fixed almost a year later
Cons: crack developed easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
My 2021 Ascent got a cracked windshield around 1K miles, my wife's 2021 Outback windshield cracked around the same time. Before this, none of us cracked a windshield in over 20 years of driving.
Cons: windshield cracked easily
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 1000 km
Had our 2018 Model 3 windshield replaced recently. Original windshield was perfect with no distortions. New windshield had significant ripples right in the driver's view.
Pros: original windshield perfect
Cons: significant ripples in view
I have a 2019 with 40000km and the windshield just cracked for the second time this week. Wasn't even a big chip that caused it.
Cons: cracked twice, not from big chip
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Mileage: 40000 km
I own a 2017 Forester. I’ve had to have the windshield replaced twice due to it cracking all by itself. The NHTSA reports are absolutely true. The second time it sat at the dealer for over 4 months because they were on back order. This is all due to Subaru using thin lightweight glass to increase fuel economy for CAFE numbers.
Cons: cracks easily, long back order, thin glass
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
