The windshield is one of the most important parts of your car. It is designed to allow you to see what is around you including dangers and things that need to be avoided, it also protects your from any debris that may come flying at you. The sad thing about a windshield is that for the most part it is ignored until there is a problem with it. Unless there is a crack or chip in it and you need an auto glass replacement, the windshield goes unnoticed.

For the most part there are two options when your windshield is damaged. You can take it to an auto glass repair shop where they may be able to fill the chip or small crack. This may prolong the life of your windshield and cost much less than a full windshield replacement. The other option is to do a full auto glass replacement. Although the auto glass replacement cost is much higher than the cost of a fill it is a sure fix to the problem of a cracked windshield. A fill may still crack in the future and can worsen over time but a full auto glass replacement will be as good as a new windshield from the factory.

Auto glass replacement can be quite a cost for drivers. A replacement windshield can cost hundreds of dollars. One way to keep this cost down is through insurance plans that cover auto glass replacement. Some insurance plans can cover the entire cost of auto glass replacement. There are many different plans that can cover auto glass replacement and although many do not cover the entire expense they can still save the driver hundreds of dollars. It would be a good idea to sit down with your insurance agent and talk about the different options for auto glass replacement, the upfront cost, and the total cost it could save in the long run from windshield replacements.

Although maintenance is an unwanted cost for drivers it is something that must be done to keep your vehicle in working order. An unmaintained windshield can be a huge risk to the driver and anyone around them. It can make it so the driver cannot see their surroundings. Regardless of the decision on whether to do a full auto glass replacement or a fill it is important to take care of the problem as soon as it happens to keep the danger at a minimum level.
