CRACKED WINDSHIELD ADVICE ON MY LEASE TRUCK.

[x Baldwin Motion]

Check your insurance policy, I need a new windshield every two or three years, last year I got one on both vehicles and they haven't dumped me.

What part of ohio are you from?

Ditto on checking with your insurance company -- Don't know about Ohio, but here in Florida windshield replacement by law is exempt from a deductable. One company even gives YOU $25 (and another a box of steaks) if you use them for the windshield replacement under insurance coverage.

Good luck, BCD.

The last times I had any glass replaced in a vehicle(2 times on my current truck) it didn't cost me anything. Insurance companys will usually replace any glass at no cost to you 1 or 2 times a year if necessary.

Be careful when calling your Insurance Co. and try and find out what your deductible amount is without telling them you need a glass...some will penisize you by taking away your no claims discount if you do it or not!.

If your dedictible is high, do as mentioned above and tell the glass guys you're doing the paying...also be clear you won't be taking the free nylons or BBQ's or whatever other incentives they may have..

I just checked w/ my glass guy here and an aftermarket one is $250 installed including the molding and kit for a light tint unit..
Add $25 for upper shading and add another $100 for the factory job w/ Ford or Harley edition logo etc..

A few years ago I called my broker asking about coverage on a monster-size tree that had fallen over in my yard.. Their response was no coverage for trees themselves, only for things they may hit when falling..
So simple enough, out came the trusty Pioneer and I got rid of it myself..
A year later I noticed my claims free discount was gone and when asked was told any inquiry is noted and considered pending and a claim yet possible...so goodbye claims free discount!.
Simple enough again...gonzo w/ these guys and onto a new group!.
