Make sure your windshield is Volvo original and not aftermarket.
Autoglass replaced my windshield with original VW one. Great service.
I had a similar issue, also with my vw golf GTI. Insurance also covered the repair with auto glass. They used OEM and the experience was very good.
On my 2005 P2 cars (XC70 and S60R), after multiple issues with aftermarket windshields and rain sensor problems, a Volvo windshield was installed. This resolved the issues, leading the location to change policy to only use Volvo windshields for Volvos.
I've had several over the years, mostly fine, some proportion variations here and there or where the black fading around the edges is and how thick it is etc, but largely okay. I'd say the biggest thing I notice is the appearance of those Little sparkly rock chips becomes easier to develop on the aftermarket glass.
I had one 2021 S60 until last month, great for travel, very comfortable, lots of space for two kids.
Only issue was the windshield, change 3 , one for year, talk to the mechanic and said it’s ok, I think the quality of the parts is not what it was.
I have a similar crack, xc40 recharge. It’s got a bit bigger now and no unfortunately not covered by warranty unless one has purchased the windscreen warranty for $2000 on top of extended warranty and some other warranty, tires perhaps or wheels can’t remember but I declined.
my 24 v60 windshield cracked twice in a span of first 11 months and 11k mile of ownership. My previous car, I had one chip in 11 years and 132k miles. I wonder if Volvo windshield is weak or I have bad luck.
A pick-up truck with knobby tires kicked up a rock that chipped the windshield of my wife’s brand new Volvo within 30 minutes of her leaving the dealership.
One thing I am noticing though on a negative level is a very distinct and rather annoying whistling noise coming from the windshield (center area; rather top section at the level where the rear mirror is) starting at approximately 150kmh. I am driving often on the German Autobahn, the car is specified for high speed also - and I would simply not expect such a distinct whistling noise from a 80.000€ car.
