Windshield OEM BMW or OEM KIA

Switched to original BMW and it was perfect again

Mine is still holding on well after almost a year and a half despite several roadtrips on I-80 and a particularly terrible drive to Fargo where a couple of gigantic semis were on the opposite end of a milled one-lane road and flung a bunch of stuff on to my windshield.

I’ve had my glass replaced in 2016 on a 2015 435i with heads up display and insurance covered the OEM replacement BMW logos and all. Only complaint was the tech put a small scratch in my heads up with his jagged ass vacuum cleaner tip but he owned up to it and wrote and signed it on the receipt in case I wanted to make a claim about it. It didn’t affect the heads up so I let it go.

Cracked mine the first 3 days of owning my 2023 Ex X-line. Shits still cracked

I have a 2024 Telluride and I’m on my 4th windshield. I’m in Arizona and it seems like any rock on the freeway destroys the windshield.

2024 X5, yes same issue. Replaced due to a rock from a truck that was at least 5 - 7 car lengths ahead of me in the right lane. As soon as I got it back after full replacement it was hit again and cracked on the bottom passenger side. Hard to see since so low. The. My husband drove this past week and also endured a chip. I don’t believe the windshields on these are very durable. I’ve owned many cars/SUVs (we lease and trade regularly every 2-3 years). This has by far been the worst.

I have a 2023 BMW X3 M40i and have the exact same issue. The windshield cracked overnight after only having the car 6 months from new, no stone chip visible. Had it replaced with OEM glass and the replacement windshield cracked in the same place 4 months later. No sign of chip. Looks just like your photo.

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.

I’ve owned 6 BMWs every one of them got cracked windshields, some multiple times….i always got oem…

I recently purchased a 2024 330i M-Sport a little over a month ago and it seems my car attracts rocks or something because my windshield is covered in these tiny little chips. I thought it was dirt or something at first; but, after close inspection, they are indeed chips. I’ve had cars that have gone through hell and back without any damage at all. I’ve been taking it relatively easy on the car, just commuting to work and back just for this to happen so soon. If it keeps going at this rate, it’s gonna accumulate so many that it’s gonna bother the shit out of me more than it does now and I’m gonna want to replace it.
