We have replaced the windshields in both the Tacoma and Highlander with Safelite 'Pilkington' OE equivalent glass. All safety features work just as expected.

Pros: safety features work

I used Safelite for a windshield replacement on my 2016 340i last year and they did a perfect job. They used the same glass manufacturer as BMW - Pilkington. BMW doesn't make glass. HUD and rain sensor were perfectly calibrated. No issues whatsoever.

Pros: perfect job, perfectly calibrated
Cons: none
Vehicle: BMW

Pilkinton/AGC are mighty fine.

My relative works for AGC (a direct competitor) and calls the glass “very good”. Moreover, I have it on my Corolla and I see no difference to the OEM. Actually, I’d argue much better than the EU original Sisecam.

I would definitely avoid Fuyao.

Pros: very good glass
Cons: avoid Fuyao

The final windshield was a Pilkington and it’s still going strong. It even took a strike outside of Vegas with a rock the size of a nickel. The Pilkington was installed by an independent installer and there was no problem with the eyesight.

Pros: still going strong, took a strike, no eyesight problem

The aftermarket Pilkington glass I got doesn't sit quite the same against the dashboard and headliner but it's acceptable. Figured I'd go for it after reading a few posts about the OEM Carlex glass cracking on the various Subaru subs.

Pros: acceptable aftermarket glass
Cons: doesn't sit quite same
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza

the windshield on my 2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE needed to be replaced and I decided to go through Glass America to get it done. Unfortunately, I've had to take it three times now as each windshield has had somewhat significant distortion.

Cons: significant distortion
Vehicle: Toyota

My 2021 Accord's windshield looks like it has been sandblasted, has a lot of pits, and a couple of chips, and it's just been a year since I got it. I keep a lot of following distance. Every time I am on the interstate, I just hope I get back home without a new crack, and I always hope I don't hear a sound in the windshield when I am passing a semi. No other brand car that I have driven had a windshield this weak.

Cons: sandblasted appearance, weak glass
Vehicle: Honda Accord
