Windshield Replacement Repair Guide

• First things first: Call your insurance company. depending on your circumstances and particular policy and/or provider, your windshield replacement could also be covered fully , in part, or not at all by your insurance. Contact your insurance firm immediately after windshield damage to work out your coverage, potential financial liability, and other obligations.

• Find the right shop. There are dozens of auto glass shops in and around Mesa, so choose wisely. Select one that, at minimum, satisfies the subsequent criteria:

   Insurance. If applicable, confirm the shop you select accepts your insurance. Premiere Auto Glass accepts most major insurances and may sometimes work with other companies. Still, we encourage you to see with us about your insurance anyway, in order that unnecessary delays and/or additional expenses are often avoided.

  OEM Glass. to make sure proper fit, stability, and load-bearing, your vehicle’s replacement glass should be Original Engineering Manufacturer (“OEM”) glass or glass made by an equivalent manufacturer that made your vehicle’s original glass. OEM glass is specific to make, so confirm the shop you select stocks the OEM glass for your vehicle. At Premiere Auto Glass, we feature OEM glass employed by “the big three” automakers, also as variety of specialty brands.

  Convenience. additionally to the above, when choosing a store , consider its location, availability to supply quick service, and the other “conveniences” offered; and choose the shop that most accurately fits you. Premiere Auto Glass offers mobile services to your home or office, at no additional cost.

• Plan… if possible. You can’t plan on when you’ll need a windshield replacement. But once you

choose Premiere Auto Glass to exchange your windshield, you'll decide to be back on the road within approximately two hours. When making a meeting for in-shop service or adjusting your obligations after calling for mobile service, please keep this timeframe in mind and plan accordingly.

• Leave your windshield alone! Once your windshield is broken , it’s more susceptible to additional damage. Anything you are doing thereto could damage it more, which could seriously change both the character (and cost) of the work needed and therefore the nature of your claim , including whether it’s covered. So, again: Leave your windshield alone! don't nudge or investigate it; don't plan to remove any broken/hanging glass or attempt to fix or patch it; don't wash it. Don’t do anything thereto , unless we tell you to.

We hope these tips will make windshield replacement a bit easier for you. And to form things even easier, Premiere Auto Glass offers coupons for both insurance-covered and self-paying customers. Contact us for details!
