KIA/Hyndai windshields are hot garbage. You should try to add glass coverage on your insurance. I have a $50 deductible on mine and safelite replaced it with an aftermarket windshield that won’t crack. Plus my HUD still works on my SX Prestige

Pros: HUD still works
Cons: windshields are hot garbage

Ask your installer for Pilkington Glass. When my OE glass cracked I had Pilkington put in, that was over 10 years ago and I'm still running the same windshield with no cracks.

Pros: long-lasting, no cracks
Vehicle: Jeep

Safelite replaced my windshield again with a Pilkington one and it works great, just gotta rotate the HUD a bit.

We had 3 windshields replaced with OEM. The 4th was replaced with Pilkington brand. It’s last longer than the first 3 combined plus. It’s taken rocks that would have broken any of the OEMs. There was NO problem calibrating the eyesight.

Pros: lasts longer, durable, no Eyesight issues
Vehicle: Subaru

I just had to replace mine. The screen we got was pilkington, who make the OEM windshield but it had no Land Rover branding. It was the latest version where the solar attenuation screen is now totally clear. There’s a little thermometer icon on the screen to indicate that it has solar attenuation.

Pros: solar attenuation screen clear
Vehicle: Land Rover

The aftermarket Pilkington glass I got doesn't sit quite the same against the dashboard and headliner but it's acceptable. Figured I'd go for it after reading a few posts about the OEM Carlex glass cracking on the various Subaru subs.

Pros: acceptable aftermarket glass
Cons: doesn't sit quite same
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza

the windshield on my 2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE needed to be replaced and I decided to go through Glass America to get it done. Unfortunately, I've had to take it three times now as each windshield has had somewhat significant distortion.

Cons: significant distortion
Vehicle: Toyota

My 2025 Sx Prestige had it's windshield just replaced because of a rock. Chipped and splintered.. then went all the way across. Safelite says they are seeing a ton of 2025 vehicles for the same thing. 21 years of driving and this is my first windshield replacement. 4k miles on the van btw Our 2023 never had issues.

Cons: cracked easily, first replacement ever
