Windshield OEM FORD or OEM KIA

Safelite replaced it with genuine Ford OEM glass, complete with the 75th Anniversary badging on the glass. The guy that did my glass was an absolute pro, and I can't tell the difference between the original and replacement.

I had to replace mine after a rock chip turned into a crack on a snow trip. Used safelite and the came to my office and did exact OEM replacement and calibration. It actually came out better as my original had a giant Ford sticker lol.

I had my Flash windshield replaced. New one looks great and did not notice any noise increase.

Personally, I think the Kia windshields are on the thinner side. I have over 40K on my Carnival and no cracks whatsoever.

Mine came with bad scratches, so they replaced it.

The Bronco glass does seem to crack way easier than anything else I've owned. Keep in mind our weather temps in Canada can be a bit extreme though.

I know how to repair windshield chips to prevent them from spreading myself, but as soon as it chips in the bronco, the cracks spread like wildfire and are >6” before I get home!

We went on a trip in the new car and everyone felt that the heat rejection from the windshield isn't impressive or nearly as good as the Baleno. The Baleno, in my experience, cuts out 90%+ of the heat from direct sunlight falling on your body and the Seltos is at maybe 30%.

I had a Sportage 2023 and kia for the first time and had to replace windshield twice in the one year I Had the car. I drive benz and I get rocks and hit on the glass and never had I ever replaced a windshield on them. I agree these kia windshields are weaker

Same thing happened with my forte
