Windshield Tesla or OEM Volvo
We just had our windshield replaced by Tesla for $577 and it lasted 6 years.
Pros: good durability, lasted 6 years
Sounds about right. 6 weeks after I got my new 2019 M3SR+, kids were throwing rocks at cars. The Model 3 was too new for Safelite to even have windshields for it. Tesla charged $1,200 to replace it before my deductible.
Yep, at a service center here in AZ waiting now for my 3rd replacement on my 2023 MYLR. This time around the total cost was $1534.61, but the cost has gradually increased (like everything else), but I’ve only trusted Tesla to do the replacements for quality control purposes.
Pros: quality control purposes
Cons: cost has increased
We told Safelite it had to be OEM/Volvo windshield due to the vehicle being a lease. We paid our $50 glass deductible and they replaced it with OEM as we requested. They also calibrated everything in house at their shop. Pretty smooth process!
Pros: OEM as requested, smooth process
Vehicle:
Volvo
Just had safelite do mine and I don’t recall the brand on the glass but it’s not Tesla. Looks fine to me no issues. Actually the previous windshield was replace by Tesla and the glass quality was not good. I almost took it back to them. Had small waves in it that produced a distortion at certain viewing angles. Then it cracked. It also had a lot of small chips in it way more than other vehicles in the past so maybe this new brand will be better
Pros: no issues
Cons: glass quality was not good
Tesla glass seems to chip more often for whatever reason
Cons: chips easily, poor durability
I’ve replaced mine twice in 2 years
Cons: frequent replacements, poor durability
The last 6 years have replaced 6 windshields on my car, 3 on my wife.
Cons: frequent replacements, poor durability
I picked up my new Model 3 about 4 weeks ago and got the glass coverage to ensure Tesla does the work and I get Tesla glass if anything happens. Less than a week after picking it up, my windshield tried catching a rock from a passing dump truck. Tesla replaced it for free, pretty much no questions asked.
Cons: cracked very quickly, poor durability
I’ve had windshield cracked(small) in like first few months of getting the car as I go on long drives(cross country).
Cons: cracked quickly
