Windshield Pilkington or OEM Hyundai

I had my windshield replaced recently though my insurance, they tinted it (70% ceramic) for free and installed Pilkington glass for free. Not sure what the OEM is but Pilkington is aftermarket that's as good if not better than any OEM glass, many have reported it seems stronger where you wont get chips quite as easily.

I took my car 5N to Safelite and they did a phenomenally good job. Because the car is so new, there are no 3rd party replacements available, such as PPG. So I have a OEM Hyundai windshield as a replacement. All calibrations were done perfectly, and the job took only a few hours. This isn't an ad for Safelite, just truthfully sharing my experience.

I replaced mine with an OEC. Didn't need to be recalibrated. Didn't have issues and it's been 2 years

when you do need a replacement, get it replaced with Pilkington brand. It's far superior to OEM (usually Carlex)

Pilkington glass is my go to for any older Toyota as they were the oem supplier for most cars. They\u2019ll also accept glass back as defective if it doesn\u2019t calibrate.

They replaced with Pilkington glass and calibrated eyesight.

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

The last 2 pilkington I've used for a Toyota did not recalibrate, used pgw for both afterwards and they recalibrated instantly.

I am currently 1 month in waiting for my windshield from Hyundai. I had my car not 2 months when my windshield was hit on the highway by what had to be a small rock and the crack began immediately straight across to other side. It's crazy to have to wait so long for this part and it's my only means of transportation so it has been difficult. It's the backorder and waiting from Hyundai for a simple windshield that is frustrating!!

Bought mines in 2022 an this is my third time replacing the windshield. I have a 2022 hundai venue.
