ABSOLUTELY, I have had my cx5 for two weeks and got hit by two rocks on a road trip, both caused huge cracks in the windshield. I was actually pretty impressed with how fragile the glass is.
My 2019 CX5 had 3 cracks in the first year. Had 7 in total by the time I replaced it last year at Safelite.
I’m on my fourth windshield so far. I try to give semi‘s a wide berth and have a respectable following distance, but no luck. Worst was having to replace the windshield twice within a year.
The OEM one seems quite fragile.
Safelite got me OEM didn't have to pay much since Geiko covered it. I only paid 50 bucks. Safelite are certified in calibrating. Well it rained in California and sensors work perfectly the same as before.
My previous car was a ‘21 Mazda 3. The factory windshield was SO fragile in my opinion. Granted I live in AZ where rock chips are extremely common. I had 3 chips that quickly turned into 3 huge cracks within about a 6 month time frame.
I've had 2 cx5's and they seem cursed with windscreen chips. First one had a similar sized chip within a couple months of owning, 2nd one had a chip that would fail the MOT, so got it repaired, then a week later got another chip slightly above the repaired spot! Never had a car where the windscreen loves being stoned this much!
I had this happen on a 2021.5 Mazda CX-5. There was a very small scratch on the passenger side that resembled the wipe pattern of the wiper blade.
Had a 16 CX-5 GT and the windshield cracked really bad on the highway when a Corvette zoomed right pass it. This was in Florida.
Ive gotten my windshields changed for 3x in 1year. Mazda cx30 2020.
