One of the most common expenses of maintaining a vehicle is auto glass repair or replacement. From a small rock chip to a completely shattered window, these damages can be unexpected and expensive. However, don’t like the cost hold you back from making the necessary repairs. With an understanding of your insurance coverage, you can save money without compromising on safety. 

Most comprehensive insurance policies will cover the cost or repairing or replacing your auto glass minus any deductible that you may have. Your deductible amount will vary depending on what type of coverage you chose when purchasing your policy. In most cases, windshield replacement deductibles are a few hundred dollars and rock chip repairs are often free of charge. It’s always best to check with your insurance provider to confirm what your policy covers. Insurance companies may require that you use a specific auto glass repair facility or they may provide you with a list of approved facilities. 

Bottom line is, don’t let the cost hold you back from fixing your vehicle. Insurance coverage makes it affordable to have your auto glass repaired or replaced.
