My windshield got chipped by a damn rock thrown from a semi the other day on the highway . Has anyone tried those windshield repair kits from Advance and Autozone? Its a small chip but a chip nontheless. I just want to know if those kits can fix it or make it worse.

I had the same problem last year.. As far as I know those kits don't work. I was at one of those car stores and sells person reffered me to some guy that fixed my windshield for $50.00 hey it might be more expensive but at least it is professionally done.

can't think of any shops that work on windshields etc... do u have any idea if Lexus or Toyota will fix it? or will they just replace the whole thing? $50 isnt bad. its just annoying cause i know where its at and i keep looking at it i also dont want it to start cracking.

You can call and check they might fix it, but I am not sure... I checked so many shops in Chicago land area but everyone said I have to replace my windshield . I think Lexus dealer should have someone who can fix that.

How big is the chip? If it is smaller than a dollar bill than a company like Safelite auto glass can fix it for you. I would probably not go to Lexus cuz they will charge you an arm and a leg to repair it. Try calling your insurance company to see if you have glass coverage on your car.

I had big chip in my windshield that spread like wildfire and my insurance took care of everything for me.

Its a very small chip. Not even the size of a dime. You wouldnt notice it if you didnt know it was there.

Then you can definately find a windshield repair shop that could fix it.

Yep hes 100% right. I called my insurance " GEICO " they sent Safelite out to my house and repaired free of charge. Call insurance co. before taking it to someone to charge you.

Many states require your insurance company to repair or replace the windsheild only without a deductable charge to you under your comprehensive coverage.
