2022 Accord came to $1,500 for OEM glass through Safelite. They did great work on the windshield and calibration.

It's a common occurrence on Subaru's equipped with Eyesight. When you get it replaced, get it done with aftermarket glass. The OEM (made by Carlex) is not durable and aftermarket (Pilkington if given a choice, but any aftermarket should do) is much better.
The glass is the OEM part, not a third-party product. They did the job when it was scheduled, and the calibration seems to be correct.
requested a genuine Kia replacement so it still looks factory. Safelite. They did a good job.
Safelite did my front and back glass on my 2nd gen thru my insurance . I requested OE glass for both. They had a Toyota windshield in stock, but the sliding rear glass was 30-45 days out of stock, so I went aftermarket.
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.
My windshield on my 2023 Mazda3 hatchback turbo got cracked from road debris. I had an auto glass company come install a new one, my insurance paid for it. I specifically chose an auto glass company that would use an OEM Mazda windshield which they acquired from a local dealership. Immediately after the install I noticed some problems with the infotainment system. Every so often the screen will go completely black and essentially reset itself while I'm driving. It seemingly happens at random, I have not found any pattern. Although the first time I used the little wheel navigation button thingy after starting the car there is like a 50% change this issue happens. Other than that, it'll just happen randomly while driving. Another issue is the bluetooth connection to my phone now cuts out all the time. This happens even when the black screen / reset does not occur. Also, the wired android auto connection now cuts out all the time. All of these issues started immediately after the new windshield was installed and the sensors/cameras calibrated.
OEM glass is dog shit. I'm on windshield number 5 in 3 years this one has lasted the longest at 7 months.
I have a 2018 Elantra GT sport and just had my windshield replaced due to a crack. The installer basically told me the same about my windshield. The windshield wasn't sealed to the car on the driver's side. It seems only the passenger half was sealed properly. I'm going to report this to Hyundai Canada as this is a potential safety hazard for anyone who gets into an accident or it could lead to water leak issues doen the road.
I just experienced similar issue with my 2023 x3 m40i yesterday. Mysterious crack that appeared out of nowhere - starts at the top edge (roughly center of windshield), runs straight down vertically until top of bottom sensor, then splits horizontal in both directions.
