This seems closer to:

1. But new car

2. Replace broken windshield with something other than OEM

3. Complain when car refuses to start because its computer detected a non OEM windshield.

Most car windshields don't have sensors, microprocessors, driver code, etc.

I had my rain sensing windshield replaced. The insurance company refused to replace with an OEM windshield. The windshield company said it would be fine.

It was not fine. Rain sensing didn't work again for the rest of the time I owned the car.

Sounds like you should reopen the case with the insurance company. Are they allowed to substitute a non-performing part just because it's cheaper?
