Apparently some time today during my morning commute, a rock hit my windshield about 1.5" from the bottom of the windshield right under the left windshield wiper. The force of the impact caused a nice 8" crack from the bottom of the windshield with a nice 1.5" curvature to the left - so a total of 9.5" for the crack.

Great.


If anyone knows - how does AAA treat this? I am on my own or will they actually be nice and help me swap the windshield without raising premiums?

 

My insurance company won't raise rate, but you do have to pay the 'comprehensive' deductable.

 

Yeah I have only liability - :sigh:

 

You are on your own then.

 

I work at AAA and if you only have liability then you are not covered for any repairs on your own car.

 

a windshield here in jersey only cost about $200-$250 installed...

 

mine will give me two windshields a year

 

I wonder what the difference would be for comprehensive insurance... anyone has an idea? I am still, thankfully, under my parents' insurance

 

i only have liability and when my windshield cracked, they would not cover it....however i was able to find a local glass guy and (after some haggling) got it replaced/installed for only $130 .......shop around comradejew

 

u spelled mister wrong.

 

My comprehensive insurance has a "free glass" policy, in which they will replace any broken glass free of any deductable.

 

I got it replaced last year for 140 (or was it 160) in Newark, NJ

 

im in newark nj and a windshield + install is like $100

 

Damn, it expanded another inch and a half.

Yeah I think I know where I am gonna go to get it done.

 

He wasn't being sarcastic or anything.
