Damn! Sorry to hear that! That's top dollar for a replacement mirror, will it be OEM at least?

Here in Israel windshield coverage is only included if you purchase the "Third Party" insurance plan, which results in eventually paying an expensive plan throughout the entire year...

 

I made sure to add glass insurance to my car because of those sensors and I think it added $4 a month. Sorry you have to pay that...rocks suck.

 

$500 deductible:frown2:

 

windows are the most popular with Thieves - smash n' grab

 

USAA runs with a $250 deductible...

 

Thats pretty rough... time to update the insurance policy, you and me both...

 

Higher the deductible, lower the monthly.
Never had to replace a windshield in 40 yrs of driving (at least not without a crash).

 

My new 3 has picked up several small chips already.

It doesn't take much to leave a mark it would appear.

Hmm. My 2014 CX-5, got cracked. I have all the sensors and it cost about $422.65 total through SafeLite. Who did you go through, the dealer???

 

Was it an OEM windshield though? I'm not doubting the price difference, but when I needed one replaced on another car I owned, SafeLite also initially offered me a replacement (with sensors and whatnot) for about 60% of the price of an OEM one. Luckily, in my state insurance is required to cover damage to windshields (though I did have to pay the price difference between the aftermarket and OEM part).

 

Dealer refers to SafeLite.:surrender:

 

SafeLite doesn't install the OEM glass. OEM glass is supplied by Saint-Gobain S.A. (SEKURIT).

 

That's terrible. We have glass coverage and didn't have to pay at all. also they messed up the first so it got done twice by Safelite

 

I sorry about your experience. My wife's windshield cracked a couple of years ago. It was a cold night, had the defogger on and it cracked across the bottom of the windshield. It was also a month before her car needed to be inspected and it wouldn't pass with a crack in the windshield. That was also when I found out that State Farm covers the glass in their comprehensive coverage, but out deductible was $250 at the time and it was going to be $240 to replace the windshield. I then found out that I could drop the comprehensive deductible down to $0 and I also dropped the collision down the $250 (that was as low as I could make it) and my bill only went up about $50 every 6 months. Now, we shouldn't need to pay for another window in our cars.
