Broken windshield, small chip cracked to 2ft!

[auiotour]

Had this happen this weekend, was a tiny chip smaller than the tip of my pinky and before I got home it was over a foot, now it's from the drives side to passenger side.

My question is with replacement, I am afraid that State Farm will use cheap glass that doesn't have it/uv coating and also cause issues with the censors.

Has anyone had an issues with generic glass, or with forcing insurance companies to use Ford windshields?

Every windshield has a UV coating. It is a question of whether your windshield came with an IR coating.

As far as I am aware mine has an IR film on the windshield.

It should have an IRR marking in the corner if it does:

Interesting I could have sworn my paperwork said I did, but my windshield says I don't. Looking for it now. Thanks!

Rally's do not have IRR windshields because they do not have a glass pano roof. IRR windshields are only installed on Mach-E's with a glass pano roof.

Most insurance companies will allow use of OEM parts. However, you will have to pay the difference between OEM and aftermarket prices, plus your deductible.
