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

Pilkington Windshield

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

I recently had my windshield replaced in my '18 OBW with third-party glass. Used a small local glass shop in a medium size town. They calibrated it in their garage and it has been flawless.

Pros: flawless calibration

I just got my Impreza done a few months ago and it was about a $1k total for glass, install, and calibration, although I used aftermarket glass which fits a bit different.

Pros: glass, install, calibration
Cons: fits a bit different

2025 Forester purchased in early June already has 2 of these chips. We have never experienced this in any of our past vehicles, including an Outback that was part of the class action class. This is an obvious quality issue.

Cons: prone to chipping, quality issue
Vehicle: Subaru Forester

I've had lots of issues with it (I've replaced 3 windshields in my first ~21 years of driving and ~10 in 10 years with the subarus with eyesight).

Cons: lots of issues, frequent replacements

Man Subaru glasses probably some of the worst I've ever seen. I've owned a WRX since 2020 both VA and VB at this point I wasn't able to get 4 months into my VB before I replace the windshield.

Cons: worst glasses ever
Vehicle: Subaru
