7 months 16k miles and all good. Prior vehicle was a jkur, 150k miles in under 2 years and never a crack. I drive hard but I drive smart ;o) oh and yes I have a hood deflector! Looks good on Carbonized gray

Some people don't like the deflector, but I can honestly say that it really reduces the bugs and debris from hitting your windshield. I think it looks great and a lot better than a cracked or chipped windshield..maybe I'm not as cool as the cracked windshield guys but oh well....

No breaks at 25K on my '22. I've had a few minor chips that I repaired. The key is not to drive behind SAS Broncos with OEM tires. :)
Well...45k and just got hit by a large rock centered on windshield. Plies delaminated. Attempted repair but two fingers are growing sideways. Repaired and cracked it more. Repaired a 3rd time and will see how long it lasts. New windshield may finally be on my list...

Yes. I don't follow vehicles closely. Especially trucks, 4x4's, dump trucks, etc. Bug deflector helps.

No, it's not possible to own a Bronco without suffering a broken windshield. At least that's from my experience. I wonder if it would've helped if I had a bug deflector ? LOL

Just got back from a 2500 mile road trip.... I have 9k miles and almost a year old... finally got to join the club during this trip... 3 times on the way back! 2.5" nice star behind the mirror, 10" crack from edge on passenger side, and a small chip/crack in driver's side. All near or coming out of road construction zones... Now I'll get to see how good that 5 year windshield warranty is that I got with the purchase of the vehicle :fingerscrossed:
