Owner reviews for windshield

The glass installed was Pilkington. Pilkington is the OEM glass for my three Mercedes and Ferrari. Look at your windshield. The manufacturer is on it. That is what you want. Next time I got a chip, I called Safelite and asked if they could get me Pilkington glass. They said yes, showed up and replaced it. Happened a third time, and Safelite did it a third time.

I had my oem Saint Gobain Sekurit glass replaced with Pilkington glass since insurance didn't want to pay for the OEM. Never had any issues with HUD visibility; however, the replacement was done by the BMW dealer.

Safelite’s windshield is not tinted nor as thick as the OEM. I’d recommend only use the BMW OEM windshield or you’re devaluing you X5.

Got a quote from an independent shop recommended by my detailer, total was around $2600 for parts and labor for ‘24 X5. It was OEM glass directly from BMW. They also calibrated. Job was done perfectly and had no issues.

Zeitnah zu Carglas, aber nicht sofort

I had the windshield in my 2016 Outback replaced a few months ago at my Subaru dealer. It has now cracked down from the top middle center with no impact. It's a clean break. It's the OEM glass that sucks.

Wenn CarGlass dann frag‘ bitte dringend ob die alles hinkriegen - inklusive kalibrieren der Kamera etc.. Hier vor Ort können die fast nix davon bei Japanern.

Kürzlich falsche Scheibe installiert und Head-up-Display dadurch nicht mehr lesbar.

I experienced the same issue on my 2021 CX-5. Two chips in a week or so of ownership. I never had windshield build quality issues with any of my previous cars.

had my bmw x3 for 2 years and have had 4 cracks already wtfffff

We have had our M440i and drive is seldomly. On a recent road trip, I heard a small stone hit the windshield. This was 4am with hardly any traffic. No damage was seen on it. We parked the car and returned 5 days later to find a huge crack around the rear view mirror. Never seen anything like it. Replacement at the dealer is $2600.
