  • Replacement Windshield

    Not too long after I bought my G6, I had to have the windshield replaced because of damage from a rock. My insurance company covered it, but I think they had the company (Safelite) throw on their cheapest windshield. The reason I say this is because it hasn't been two years and the windshield looks 10 years old. Right from the start I noticed the windshield gets scratches from the windshield wipers. Even after I replaced the wipers a few times, the scratches still seem to be adding up. Next, it looks like someone took a sandblaster to the windshield. In the right light, the windshield looks horrible.

    Just to note, I keep my car VERY clean. So there isn't much dirt/dust on my car very often. I also don't travel down any gravel roads. 99% of my driving is on the highway.

    So is there a difference in the windshields I can choose from? Is there one brand/type I should get?

    If there is a difference, i'm replacing this one out of pocket and getting something good. I know the brand name on this windshield is not PPG. It has some acronym i've never seen on a windshield.

      I had a windshield replaced somewhere along the line, and i had mine done at the dealership. I assume they used the OEM glass, but I honestly don't know. Mine looks like poop too. Chipped and pitted all to hell, and definitely seems to be getting etched all over the place.
