windshield replacement - go with Ford? or aftermarket?

Going thought the same thing. safelight Tech just left. As he started setting up he noticed the replacement was not OEM and he called me out to look. He called his manger and the proper windshield is in stock and rescheduled for 2 days from now. Going to be around $1200. Deductible is $1009 so paying out of pocket. Expensive rock on a 2026 st that not even 3 weeks old. Sigh.

What a b4ll buster that is! Sorry to hear.

Safelite will also quote you on the OEM glass if you ask. I found the service used by local Ford dealers and they were cheaper than Safelite. I paid extra for the Ford glass and am satisfied.

Ask the dealer’s body shop if they’ll put you in touch with the company they use. That saved me a lot.

Already tried my dealership. About $700 more and they bring out Safelife as well lol

I've always gone with OEM. Some aftermarket glass will have slight distortions in certain light.
