Windshield OEM Mazda or OEM FORD

my insurance on my CX9 with HUD would cover only the aftermarket. I could pay the difference but was assured it would be fine.

Three windshields later they replaced it with OEM. And it was perfect.

I had mine replaced... took a good sized rock to the windshield on our Premium trim PHEV. (Heads up display, lane monitoring, ect.) The smashed middle of the damage made repair a no go.

I did it through Safelite and they used an OEM because there was no aftermarket available. Glass Only Repair Insurance saved us $2,000.00 out of pocket after glass, install and recalibration.

I’ve always replaced with the OEM ford glass because I like the f-150 logo on the top in my 2012.

I had this happen on a 2021.5 Mazda CX-5. There was a very small scratch on the passenger side that resembled the wipe pattern of the wiper blade.

I experienced the same issue on my 2021 CX-5. Two chips in a week or so of ownership. I never had windshield build quality issues with any of my previous cars.

2024 Mazda CX-30 windshield cracked from first Little Rock to hit it then got another small crack randomly, I believe at least these models do have a awkwardly shaped windshield that makes it noticeable weaker in comparison to most vehicles

I had a CX5 that went thru 6 windshields in 2.5yr period! Luckily my insurance had glass coverage and I paid $50 per replacement but still… not fun. I had other CX5’s and they all had some sort of windshield issues, either full replacement or chip filling.

Unfortunately the quality of the OEM glass is horrible and I had them replace it again. The replacement was just as bad so at this point I've given up on getting a windshield free of distortion.

Yup. Got a 10-12 inch crack from the very bottom in the middle of the windshield just three days after picking up the car (less than 200 miles on the odometer). The dealership said it's not a defect and something must have hit it.

it had several chips in it already, but it was after 2 years
