Made my first payment Saturday, cracked windshield today! Last week i had a rock hit the windshield, saw no damage. Drove truck to golf course this morning, came back to truck and a 12" crack on pass side. I can see where the rock hit, I guess sitting in the sun caused the crack to run. Anybody have their windshield replaced? Cost??

 

This is ridiculous, 3 rocks ( small rocks ) and 3 chips/cracks.

Those windshield are junk. Ford should be held accountable.

 

Just got off the phone with All Pro Auto Glass, my cost is $343.34 out the door for a original equipment Ford windshield (has Ford logo in center). Aftermarket windshield (no Ford logo) is $227.33 out the door. I would go aftermarket if my truck was older but damn, I just made the first payment! Ford windshield will be installed tomorrow.

 

Ford is making them thinner/lighter to save weight, that's partly why we get the phenomenal fuel mileage!

 

Thats a good argument.... For a small car. Our trucks are so heavy and powerful I don't think a 30 pound windshield would do a difference. And what is the point of saving fuel if you have to pay for a new windshield everytime a rock hits?

 

cost of windshield is $352,00 and it cost about three hundred for install if u have all the bells and whistles

 

My auto policy covers free windshield chip repair, and OEM glass breakage replacement (including moonroof) repair with $100 deductible. Did you check your policy?

 

My Insurance co only covers repairs (Chips etc free to me) not replacement. I have to cover deductible ($500), they cover the rest for replacement. Looks like this one is on me. At least it's only $350, I thought it would be more.Can't be runn'in around in a new truck with a broke windshield!

 

Here in FL insurance covers 100% for cracked window
Just happened to wifes new car

 

Florida law (can you say "dumbfhit politician?") requires deductibles to be waived on windshields. You're already paying for it might as well take advantage of it.

 

Windshield replaced, I feel better now. I can think of at least 3-4 other things I could have spent that $350 on though...
