Windshield Tesla or OEM Volkswagen
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.
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.
My CPO had a fairly pitted windshield on delivery. Luckily it was replaced for delamination, the new one is holding up OK.
The new windshield sucked and had distortions in multiple places and around the edges. It was really inferior, irritating, and we never got used to it.
Just got my windshield replaced again for the third time because the previous two had ripples in them, now I got an OEM VW windshield installed and they told me it’s normal to have some slight waves in the windshield. I thought OE or OEM would be better but it’s kinda the same as the other non OE windshields.
I’m going to say yes. Had my 05 Lexus is300 for almost 20 years. 2 chips and one window replacement. I have had my 23 M3P for 8 months. One chip and then had a rock hit my window - started as another chip then within 24 hours became an 18 inch crack. Had to have it replaced.
My last car went 13 years without a cracked windshield. My new Tesla had a crack in less than 6 months.
Im 2 for 2 (Y and 3) with cracked windshield, so yes. This is from a guy who has driven more than + 700,000 km and 6 different other cars.
I had mine done by the Santa Monica SC and it took them 3 times to seal it right. They also scratched the hood of my car. Overall -3/10.
