This might be a dumb question but something like a windshield replacement under warranty wouldn't go on carfax or anything right? It would just be listed as a service?

depends on who and where install it. not likely. but carfax is more spastic than an autistic tourette's kid after 4 cans of monster.

I don't know but I wouldn't think so, as it's a warranty replacement not damage or an accident.

So, here we go with the dealership rodeo. Dropped the car off last night and found out that they did not also order the homelink mirror that they deemed defective. Appt. was supposed to be at 9 AM and I was passing by at 11 AM to see the progress. Was told that 9 AM was for me to drop off the car, and the glass subcontractor would get to it whenever. 2:30 PM today get the call that they could not do the windshield because they failed to also order the moulding for it. Now I have to do it all over again.

Also, once the job is completed, pay close attention to the interface between body, glass and molding in the top corners. Maybe take a picture of how they look now. |

I was looking and trying to remember where this thread was. I’m having the same issue with my 2022 BRZ. There’s distortion only in front of the driver side, about 4 inches in diameter - right in front of the driver’s focal point. Same issue, when I move up and down, things distort only in that section. Cars begin to fisheye as if they’re under a magnifying glass. It’s been giving me bad headaches and making me nauseated. If I move my head over the center console, it’s clear and looks good. Passenger side looks good also.
I took a video of it today and you can clearly see streaks in the actual glass, not on it. Planning on taking it to the dealer next week. Glad to know that the dealer ordered a replacement for you. |

There's also the question of how many times you want your car opened up and fresh urethane applied. If there's no other problems with the install, I would try to live with it, hard with a new car though. |
