Windshield OEM Toyota or OEM Mazda

My 2016 has NEVER cracked nor chipped...

You may not actually need the recalibration… if you have a heads up display, that’s probably different but otherwise it may not be necessary at all. Went through this with my 21 RAV, lots of places tell me, I would need to take it to the dealer for calibration after the new glass. The place I went to said to try it out first and then decide if you need it because a lot of times through replacement does not affect anything. so I got the new glass and drove off, no issues no need for recalibration. The windshield cracked and a construction zone about six months after I got the car. It’s been a couple years and about 80,000 miles since then. No complaints or problems with any of the sensing pack, works like the day I brought it home

I have had 1 small chip in my 2013 Mazda 3. It happened in a construction zone and I was able to get it into safelite that same day and had the chip fixed within an hour. That one has stayed pretty good, but it is noticeable.

Toyota windshields are like glass. I’ve had 3 chips/cracks in 2 years. All my other cars haven’t had any in 5 years.

My 2022 Tacoma is on its second windshield and I currently have a huge crack in it and a separate one forming from rocks on the roads flying up.

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've noticed on my 2024 Rav4 that the windshield is more prone to stone chips. This is my 4th Toyota and already in the span of a year I have two stone chips that on my other Toyota's would not have chipped.

My ‘23 Camry with 12k miles has several pits and cracks. Seems like the windshield is a magnet for road debris.

According to the shop that fixed my windshield, the Toyota windshields are easily broken. I was the 3rd RAV4 that day

I got a 2021 Corolla recently coming from a 2010 Prius. Over 8 years I had 1 chip in the Prius. Since November when I bought this car i got two chips and had to replace it already.
