Thought I would respond since I just did a post about the windshield as far as if it's acoustic or not.
I do know that if you have the glass replaced, under no circumstances do not allow for an aftermarket windshield to be installed. With all the crash mitigation systems on the car with use cameras behind the windshield, car manufacturers have very stringent specs for the glass they use, including the optical clarity of the glass.
Hyundai will likely not honor warranty repairs to any issues involving the Tucson's camera if it could be attributed to an aftermarket windshield.
But as in my post about the windshield, I am trying to determine if these cars have acoustic glass, but I don't see the marking for it, even though Hyundai says it does. Hopefully we can get that determined on here soon, but this would be another reason to get OEM glass only.
Many of these glass companies will offer aftermarket windshields or the insurance companies will try to go that route to save money. They will say that the aftermarket windshields are made to the exact same specs as the factory windshield, but that does not mean Hyundai approves of it.
