Windshield replacement

[shreff86]

Has anyone ever had safelite do this if so was wondering if it was a good, bad or ugly experience that they caused more damage than they helped

 

Thanks for any help

The entire windshield? Or just spot fixes? I have done the spot fixes more than once, and my experience is it depends on the person performing the work. I have had some really good ones where you will barely notice the spot again, and have had some that look horrible and very noticeable afterwards. If it is really noticeable I would make them do it again, I failed to do that and now have an ugly rock chipped that is "fixed" but looks horrible.

Ask somebody from Phoenix, AZ they usually go through 2-3 windshields a year if driving 15,000-20,000K on hwys to work.

 

Safelite to fix spots is just fine....If it's cracked and you want to replace the whole windshield get a reputable installer and request PILKINGTON GLASS ONLY EZ_COOL if your paying for it in insurance it's your right to have the glass you want!

 

Safelite uses CHINA MADE SHIT! IT SUCKS>>>>>>GET THE PILIKINGTON OR GO WITH NO SHIELD!

I had them replace the windshield on my '14 and never had a problem with it.

Funny since there used to be a Safelite about 30 minutes from me and they're were always putting up job positions that had something to do with making the windshields and other glass. I think it closed up but I can't be for sure.

It is a whole windshield replacement and would be replaced with a new gm oem one

My insurance uses safelite. I have had at least 4 new windshields installed by them in recent years, though those were on my old truck and other car. none on my new truck yet. But I never had a problem.

 

I also have them come do it inside my garage in stead of outside somewhere, so I don't know if that matters.

Pilki probably makes it for GM just burns the GM tag on it and higher price etc. Safelite has and does mfg/source their own glass it is inferior to Pilkington. PG is now CHINA crap too! Take it from somebody who knows glass bro! Safelite will put the cheapest damn piece on for you!

 

I am already on my second piece of glass @17,000 miles......I eat that shit for my vehicles.....I got blasted the very next day with this new one and had safelite fix it before it cracked everywhere....But I will not have them put in new glass or anybody else unless they guarantee it's Pilkington

I had the windshield on my 2014 replaced, was cheaper to go thru the dealer and get a true GM OEM windshield than it was to use Safelights junk glass.
