Windshield OEM Hyundai or OEM KIA

The Ioniq 5's windshield is pretty tough.

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.

if you have the model that projects information on the windshield like the speed, etc you must get the OEM replacement. Only an OEM windshield works with it because of the glass type. Also I have a new chip on the current one that has been replaced. So ya I think these chip easy and it may be due to the special glass used, I'm not sure.

My car was parked in my driveway behind my house. Windshield was fine in the evening, the next morning it was cracked. Seems like a defect to me.

This is my second one in 4 months. I'm in Arizona, so lots of rocks and pebbles on the roads. The only other vehicle I had this many issues with was my Jeep Wrangler, that was a rock magnet, three windshields in three years.

I lost two myself, also my first ever.

These windshields are shit. I didn’t even get 500 miles before mine cracked by an object so small I didn’t even notice it until the following day.

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
