When it comes to replacing the windshield glass, using the camera analogy again, you can put filters over the lens (for use with UV light or fluorescent light) and the way the camera will 'read' the data is changed - it's now darker or lighter or changed for the way that the light has changed.Īnother way to think of this would be to swap out sunglasses on a drive - the way that your eyes and brain 'sees' what you see has changed by the change in the lens over your eyes. Then raise the camera with the tri-pod and see how the angle and the view changes. Think of it this way - take a picture with your phone camera (or if you have a 'real' camera) using a tri-pod. As I don't have Eyesight on my 2014 Limited, it's not something I've had to worry about. There have been discussions when a Subaru is lifted (Outback, Forester, whatever) should be recalibrated after a lift because the angle of the view has changed.

But I also don't want to take it somewhere if they really don't have much knowledge about how Subaru Eyesight works. Has anyone experienced windshield replacement recently and been told similar things regarding calibration? I don't want to pay someone to unnecessarily recalibrate, especially because my comprehensive deductible is high, and I haven't figured out yet if the recalibration fee will go towards my deductible. they don't offer calibration because it's 'not typical on Subarus as the camera is in the head liner and not attached to the glass so whoever does your windshield should not even be touching your camera.' it's rare the camera will need it so they don't offer calibration or have the necessary equipment, or 2.

Safelite says yes and will charge an additional $600, while some local places have said: 1.

I need my cracked windshield replaced on my 2019 Forester and have gotten extremely mixed replies from glass shops about if the EyeSight will need recalibration.
