The other issue to be aware of: try to get your insurance to cover an OEM Pilkington windshield. It's more expensive, but not wavy like some poor replacements that people have reported on in this forum. My insurance company did approve the Pilkington, despite a $300 difference.

Thanks, I'll see if they will approve the Pilkington! Good advice!

Cheers,

No warrantee, but if you have glass coverage with your insurance, they'll pick it up.

Definitely not covered by your warranty at 45k miles. I had the same thing happen to a Grand Am that I used to have. My insurance company replaced it and it didn't cost me a penny.

Got the windshield replaced today, cost me a $50 deductible, but got the Pilkington glass, very pleased to have a windshield with no dings or cracks again!

If you have Geico it's covered for a $50 deductible on your comp insurance.
