Basically a plastic window would turn yellow and become brittle after only a few years, where a glass window will remain clear and strong for a very long time.

Plastic scratches over time and decreases visibility. Glass in side windows and back glass is tempered for safety (breaks into small cubes) more durable to the elements.

Plastic is susceptible to hazing and scratches which would soon render it unusable as a front windshield. This is also a problem with armored windows on bulletproof vehicles which sandwich exotic plastics between sheets of custom glass. Within about five years the glass is hazy and in a decade it's nearly impossible to see through. Convertible tops have had plastic rear windows for years as a cheap alternative to glass and they become opaque within a few years as moisture and scratches take their toll.
Polycarbonate panels are used as substitutes for glass and plastic such as in windows. You can purchase polycarbonate panels from retailers such as Amazon.
