Windshield OEM BMW or OEM KIA

requested a genuine Kia replacement so it still looks factory. Safelite. They did a good job.

They did a great job with original BMW windshield.

i called bmw for a new windshield on my e60. 1400 in labor and 1400 for the windshield.

Hopefully you have better luck than I did. Had similar crack in a brand new 5 series(the car was only a few months old when it happened)and they wouldn\u2019t cover it. I had to go through my insurance and pay a small deductible. No other company did OEM BMW windshields in my area so I had to go the same dealership to get it done. Cost was around $2500

I’ve had my 2022 Telluride for 10 months and have replaced the windshield twice already due to the cracks that quickly turn to very long cracks stretching across my windshield. I’ve never had to replace a windshield in any of my cars prior to this car, and having gone through 3 windshields (including the original) within 10 months has been annoying.

My 2023 Rio had some little chips brand new had them fix em on the spot

I’m already on my second replaced windshield with a crack already in it. Kia glass is weak as shit. 2 weeks ago I barely heard a rock tink off my glass and it cracked ( I was able to get it filled before it spread) but I’ve already got another from earlier this winter.

Same thing happened on my 2023 Soul. Now the issue is waiting for a windshield. The 2022 is slightly different and 2023 windshields just don’t seem to exist. It’s been awhile and safelite can’t seem to get Kia to send one.

I had this happen on a previous Forte I had. A rock hit the black area (where the glass is glued) and the crack went across the whole glass. When rocks hit the black area it will almost always cause this type of damage because that part of the car holds a lot of structural weight for the car (vs say the middle of the glass). The glass safelite used was the actual oem glass so it made little difference.

I’m not sure if a rock hit it or what happened. I didn’t hear it or see it but I noticed the crack coming from the bottom driver side corner while driving. It has spread pretty quickly up into my line of sight and over to the passengers line of sight. I read online that there has been some issues with the glass used on the 2023 kias.
