Windshield Pilkington or OEM FORD

Pilkington>Carlex

Pilkington is waaaaay superior to whatever OEM supplier they use. Porsche, Land Rover, and many other luxury brands use Pilkington for their glass, and it holds up very well! My Cayenne's windshield is absolutely battered, and it's still on its original glass from 2012.

2015 and got a plinkton front windshield after oem cracked within a year, in all these years it’s taken quite a few rocks with no damage at all, I’m quite happy with it.

You are totally good with Pilkington glass though I had Safelite replace my old Jetta with that brand and it’s as good if not better than OEM glass.

After our OEM windshield was demolished, it was replaced with Pilkington auto glass. And that Pilkington glass is FAR superior to OEM Subaru glass!

Pilkington auto glass for our replacement windshield. Pilkington glass is FAR superior to Subaru’s OEM glass. It’s taken some small rock hits on the highway with no problems whatsoever.

The Pilkington windshield is fine, but the rain sensor has been much glitchier than with the original windshield.

I had mine develop a huge crack just from warming up in the morning sun and then me spraying wiper fluid. I read on some forums that it's a common issue with the Ford glass and that it's super thin or something to that affect.

So I used a company besides safelite to replace my windshield because they stressed that they only use OEM glass, but after they replaced it, its stamped Pilkington instead of Mazda, and while the glass says its HUD rated I felt like my eyes were straining to look at it.

I haven\u2019t had any issues other than bad luck with rocks being kicked up and pitting the windshield 2X!!
