I had Cascade Auto Glass replace my cracked OEM windshield (rock hit it on the freeway) on my Subaru Impreza. Because the Subaru has eyesight technology (two forward facing cameras), it needs to be calibrated when a new windshield is installed, so it requires service in the shop. The tech and the customer service person were real nice and professional over the phone and in real life. There is a lobby area where I waited while the windshield was being replaced and recalibrated. The issues I encountered were defects in the glass itself. The first windshield, I think the brand was PGW, but I know it wasn't OEM Subaru, had a two inch warped circle on the passenger side. I noticed this defect on my drive home from the shop, so I turned around and went back to Cascade Auto Glass, but it was closed. So I called them and they scheduled me a week later to have the windshield replaced again. The second windshield they installed was brand Fuyao, also defective, it had these wavy lines on the passenger side (while sitting in the driver seat) that are really noticeable when making a right turn or driving slow, like in a parking lot. I noticed the same lines on the driver side while sitting on the passenger side, so this whole windshield is defective. I ended up calling my insurance, explaining that I can't go back to Cascade Auto a third time because it's too much of a risk that I could receive another defective windshield. So now I will have a third windshield installed at an entirely different business. Hopefully my third windshield replacement will be defect free. The whole hassle with defective windshields has become real time consuming and quite annoying while driving with these defects. I suggest Cascade Auto Glass order from places that diligently inspect their glass before shipping it or at least carefully inspect it themselves when they receive it.
Photos: I circled where the defects are. The first and third photo are from the first windshield and the second photo is from the second windshield. The defects are more noticeable on video, but google reviews doesn’t support videos.
Edit: I uploaded a fourth photo of the second windshield, you can see the distortion quite easy by looking at the parking lot lines.
