Windshield OEM BMW or OEM Volvo

First highway trip on my 2018 XC60, got a chip on the windshield. Replaced by the dealer with $500 deductible.

My 2015.5 V60, I replaced my windshield several times. The shop wouldn't let me get a 3rd party glass, only a Volvo branded windshield. The shop even disputed with the insurance when they wanted to use 3rd party glass due to the safety features.

I have had two XC90 windshields replaced. Did both at the dealer because of the equipment mounted behind the glass - after replacement they took care of whatever reset codes and calibration were needed.

Went to the dealer got oem glass and it almost looks like factory even the little plastic clip is there. The only thing that's wrong is that they covered the vin with some glue. If they fixed it like they should I'm really happy cause other places might not fit original glass. Already talked with the dealer so I guess there will be no problems fixing that flaw.

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.

2021 X3. Ive had four windshield replacements this year! I have had one replacement in 25 years on other cars, and now my BMW seems to get impacted by every single flying rock. I too avoid getting close to trucks and cars, and it still occurs :(

2025 x7 m60 got the same problem front windshield cracked while parked after only having it for 3 weeks. I think bmw has a weak front 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.
