Glass Doctor explains the relationship between car insurance and auto glass warranties.
|
Whether or not your car insurance covers an auto glass warranty is dependent upon your specific policy and insurance company. While some policies may include a clause for auto glass or windshield warranty, others may not. To verify, you can either review your policy documents or check directly with your insurance provider.
An auto glass warranty is sometimes falsely thought of as being the same as car insurance. For the most part, car insurance that includes comprehensive and collision coverage encompasses events such as an accident or theft. The terms of car insurance are broader than just auto glass.
An auto glass warranty is a service carried out through a contract with a qualified glass repair shop. It covers your car's door glass and windshield against chips and cracks, and is not reliant upon a theft or collision occurring. Since auto glass warranties are focused solely on car glass, they often offer more extensive repair terms on car windows and windshields than car insurance can.
Glass Doctor Windshield Warranty
Glass Doctor offers a windshield warranty in the form of our Windshield Protection Plan. When you use any of our technicians to replace your vehicle's windshield, you get high-quality service coupled with a 12-month windshield guarantee.
If your windshield gets a chip or crack due to normal road hazards within 12 months from the date of installation, Glass Doctor will repair it. If we can't repair it, we'll replace it.
