My windshield :(

[XXplosive990]

so a couple mornings ago i got in my coupe so that i could drive to school. as i was pulling out of the driveway, my windshield starts to fog up. i turned on the defroster and started heading up to my school. on the way there i hit a nice little pothole and out of nowhere, a crack forms all the way across the bottom of my windshield i'd just gotten finished changing my CVT fluid and fixing a broken tire sensor. so im already spent. anyone know how much replacing the windshield should cost me??

yea dude this sux. here in fontana theres a spot on cherry and arrow that specialize in windshields. idk wats the price on it but it should be no more than 200 bucks.

[XXplosive990]

yeah i've seen a bunch of places around fontana. I just wanted to see what a good average price is so that i dont get ripped off. never seen your coupe around, do u live north or south of the 10fwy?

[el_blacky06]

i dnt have a coupe its a sedan dude loland i live on the north side of the 10fwy i live near the california speedway

[XXplosive990]

wow lol i was using my itouch n it looked like a coupe haha.

damn that sucks dude.... warranty maybe? i dont see how a pothole woulda cracked your windshield...

[QR25DE]

Colder outside temperature + heat on inside OR vice versa.

There could have been a small chip or crack in the windshield that went unnoticed. Once the pothole was hit it sent vibrations through the car and the windshield split.

I would take it to the dealer to see though, because if you didn't see a crack and you hit a small pothole... yeah, try it, see what they say.

yep, almost all insurance companies allow for 1 free windshield replacement each year.

[el_blacky06]

lol its all good dude i also log onto my fone so it looks a bit different. and i never thought about going to your insurance first try that. we should meet up one of these days

[XXplosive990]

ok, so im going to call the insurance company first. it was a pretty cold morning that day. about 30 degrees which is like the coldest it'll get in cali lol. so im pretty sure it was the temperature.

Strange...when it hit 6* here for 3 days straight...didnt have any windshield issues. If it were just the cold weather, mcheddadi should have a fully spiderwebbed windshield most of the year.

ugh sorry to hear that happened, totally sucks

the crack on the windshield runs along where the air from the defroster comes out. im pretty sure it was the quick temperature change that cracked it

[leifab]

all i'm saying is that it usually takes a weakness or preexisting pit/chip to give the crack a path to go to
