Show us your crack (windshields)

[Dlucky]

Check with Jason Mah at Price Family Ineos in North Bay Area. I think he just got a shipment of windshields in.

Thanks I will reach out in the morning

I’ve checked every glass vendor available to me and none even have a listing.

We have Autoglass in UK that do windscreen repair and replacement often through your insurance. I asked one of the fitters if they had any screns for the Ineos and he said yes, they had done 2 vehicles.
Do you have a generic national screen replacement company you can try?

I tried all the “Big Brands” they show no listing at all. Only factory glass purchased from dealership.

Can you tell me what brand of glass and part number? Possibly if they exist and I can find out who makes it we could get a glass supplier here to get them in.

The one he was fitting to my Abarth was an AGC Automotive, I think he may have said it was the same brand but I'm not 100% sure, and knowing me, probably wrong, but worth a try.

I'm new to the thread, but familiar with the reports... with 1,400 miles on the clock and barely a month of regular use, I'm up to four (4) chips.

I don't know what to make of it... sure, there's coincidence. And yes, I live in rural Vermont, where dirt and gravel are prevalent. But, I don't tailgate and all of the chips have come from vehicles passing by or - as was the case yesterday - overhead, as I went under a bridge right when a car was traveling across, sending a large stone my way.

For further context, despite owning at least 25 Land Rovers (the vast majority being Series and Defenders) over 34+ years, I never once replaced a windscreen. My brother and I share a Jeep Wrangler... in 8 years, it's never gotten a chip. My father has exclusively driven Jeep Wranglers for 18+ years since the introduction of the 4-door in '07. He has had one crack, admitting that it came from being too close to a dump truck.

Is the sentiment that the factory glass is the issue, moreso than the upright nature of the windscreen? I'll certainly be curious if the aftermarket glass is of any improvement...
