I had a new windsheild installed in my f150 by safelite auto glass and everything look great and Ilet it sit in my garage overnight to cure the caulk. When I came out in the morning to leave I had a big crack in my new windsheild.I called them and they said sometimes they will ceack while the caulk dries. Their coming back free of charge to replace it again. Anyone here of this before???

 

No, I've had safelite replace a windshield for me before and it held up a lot better than the original did.

 

It's a truck for chr!st's sake. Every time I get a stupid windshield replaced I catch a rock the next day. Live with it or drive wih it.

 

Installer error is a little different than a rock. I wouldn't live with it.

 

untrue about the windshield cracking when the urethane cures because it always stays flexible. The installer did something wrong but no biggy since Safelite is crazy good at honoring warranties.

 

Your right its a truck and its 5yrs old and I dont Baby it. But to pass inspection it cant have a huge 14'' crack in front of the driver. Isnt live with it or drive with it the same thing?????

 

I agree, I dont know how urethane would crack it. Just happy they are fixing it!

 

When safelite replaced my windshield he said nothing about cure time...drove it 20 mins after he left no problems...

 

I replace my windshield every couple years. It doesn't go against my insurance and even if it's not broken or chipped, I still do it.
I've done this with every vehicle I've owned.
I use giant glass and it's been perfect every time.
Might as well get something out of that money I spend every year.

 

What planet are you from? you think it doesn't effect your insurance? you must all ready be paying the max. I could see it if the glass is sand blasted or chipped but why would you replace a good window
