Damn snow. My front windshield cracked because of the snow this year and now I need a new one. Does anyone know of anyplaces to call. I called Nissan and they want like $700. Please help.

 

lookm in yellow pages for auto glass shops and call um up. do not pay more then 300 installed

 

Same thing happened to my friends maxima. Thats is why I do not turn on my front defrost anymore. I just heat up the interior a little.

 

Will your insurance not cover it?

 

Why would you want to, when you can have this fixed for cheap and not have to pay extra premiums for the next few years.

 

I'll say the same thing here I said in the last thread about broken windshields. Depending on your policy, glass is $0, or $500. However, replacing glass does not raise your premium. I have had ins. from 4 different carriers, and I got a new windshield every year for free, and it never raised my premiums. Insurance will not cover replacement from the dealer tho, it has to be aftermarket.

 

700 is a frickin rip off...
thats crazy

 

Yeah, don't go to the dealer... Shouldn't cost more than about $300 installed from a reputable auto glass place... And if you have glass ins., I'm also pretty sure it doesn't go up - mine never did when I had to have my 'shield replaced...

 

Thanks guys I will check with the ins. to see what they say.

 

Most people do $0 deductible on the glass since it turns out to be lke $15/year for it. And it doesnt affect premiums. They would rather you replace the glass then drive a cracked one which impairs your vision not to mention get a ticket or into an accident.

Whoever told you it raises premiums is full of it. If you have it on your insurance use it, thats why you pay for it.
