Windshield Tesla or OEM Subaru

Model3 in San Diego. Got it replaced and calibrated by Tesla service for $943.

I went with Tesla and was glad - they did the camera calibration and mobile tech came out a few days later to fix moisture issue. Also, sounds silly, but installed the windshield straight.

I got a crack in my windshield the first weekend of driving my Outback in 2017. A huge rock was kicked up on the interstate, I think most cars would’ve had the same result as my car.

First winter with my Model Y and I have had 2. Luckily repaired both immediately however, one circular chip repair didn’t take very well visually, but told it will hold. My personal anecdotal experience is leading me to believe that all windshields from various car manufacturers are not the same :(

I had a rock thrown and couldn't see where it hit because it was right under a wiper blade. Next morning after sun hit it, the fucking crack was 2' long in every direction. Didn't even have a chance to get a repair... Place that replaced it, couldn't get the eyesight to calibrate, so had no cruise control for a month as they waited for an OEM to replace the replacement. Dropped it for replacement and 4 hours later they said, we got it to calibrate, no need to replace. three months later, another rock and shattered. They seem fragile as fuck.

There are ongoing known issues with Forester windshields being extremely fragile. Unfortunately, they’re also very expensive to replace because the Eyesight has to be recalibrated.

Replaced the windshield twice in a matter of months after delivery. It was an extremely frustrating experience.

Replaced my windshield 3 times within a year. First one was by rock chip from Amazon truck. Second one was by dead bird from the tree. Third one was by homeless in downtown SF.

it chips just as easy as the paint

I had two windshield cracks before I reached 20k miles.
