D.C. -- Windshield crack repair?

[Anonymous]

I'm in DC and looking for a service that can repair -- as best as possible -- an 8-inch long windshield crack on the passenger side. Repaired enough to keep it from spreading and, hopefully, get it past DC DMV vehicle inspection. It's an old car and I have high deductible insurance and so would like to avoid spending the money for a replacement windshield. Thank you.

Do you not have comprehensive? They usually cover windshields.

I do but it's a $2,000 deductible.

Check your policy. We have a windshield exclusion - it's either $0 or $100.
At any rate, safelite is less than $150

They use inferior glass, but if it’s an old car, who cares?

Thanks for the tips. I will double-check any auto insurance coverage with my agent.

an 8-inch crack is not fixable.

I just paid $280 for a new windshield, installed, in Columbia. (normal car - not a huge SUV or sportscar).

Who did you use for the repair?

I didn't find anything inferior about the glass replaced in my car. Kept that car for several years after with zero problems.

In Columbia I've used Precision Auto Glass on Dobbin Rd two different times for a replacement windshield and been very happy. They've even done it while I wait (I just walked to some stores to kill time). They probably don't have mobile service

I could go to Columbia. I park on the street so that might be easier than mobile service.

$280 is what I paid at the Safelite in Bethesda as well
