Windshield OEM Subaru or OEM FORD

Heated Windshield Hi, had one in my Ford Scorpio some 20 years ago! Fantastic piece of kit.

My 2018 Outback needed a new windshield already and Subaru says to use only Subaru OEM glass because it's made for the EyeSight cameras. They say it needs re-calibration also.

When I had my 2015 forester I replaced 4 windshields. First 3 were oem, they seemed to crack pretty easy.

I have a 2015 Forester and the stock windshield was by far the most easily chipped windshield I've ever had in a vehicle. Seemed to chip much easier than the glass on the 2010 Impreza I had before. I guess what I'm saying is I don't think Subaru glass is that great, at least for my model.

We are having the same issues with the windshields cracking and chipping quite easily. I wonder if Auto Manufacturer's went to a cheaper glass for cost cutting.

The new windshield last 3 weeks before we had to do it all again. Each crack 16” to 20” with no visible impact.

I have a 2022 OBW. Windshield is absolutely messed up with cracks yet no damage was present. I’m starting to think these windows are decrepit shit pots haha

I have a 17 outback and have replaced windshield three times already. First when I had less than 1k miles.

I had a rock hit the windshield when driving in Los Angeles (right before getting to Disney Land), the next day it was a full blown crack across my entire windshield.

My 2019 Crosstrek developed a crack about 6 months after I bought it, no chips from rocks or anything, I am still dealing with my local dealership to get it fixed almost a year later
