How To Replace Broken Auto Glass In Arizona

When it comes to getting a chip repair or replacing auto glass due to a rather large crack in your windshield. There is confusion among vehicle owners in Arizona surrounding whether or not they should use auto glass insurance or pay cash for their auto glass replacement.

Should I Use Insurance To Replace My Auto Glass?

Most AZ auto glass repair and replacement companies will offer you cash back on your auto glass replacement when done using glass insurance. This leads many people to believe that their insurance premiums will rise if they use this option. While this can be true most of the time this is false information. Yes, your insurance premium will raise if you abuse the system and do 5-10 replacements per year. But as long as you do under 5 then you are just using the service you're paying for, and your glass insurance premium will more than likely stay the same. Most of the time these auto glass replacement companies will offer $100 cash rebates for replacing your vehicle's cracked windshield. If a company offers more it is because you use a great insurance company that pays more for your car windshield replacement. Arizona auto glass replacements are needed as we live in the desert and our cars are susceptible to debris, rocks, and other random objects on the road.

When Should I Pay Cash For Auto Glass Replacement?

Just because you have glass insurance, doesn't mean that it is smart to use it for a replacement. Sometimes the cost of your insurance might be less than your deductible. For instance lets say that your glass costs $385 and you have a $500 deductible. If the company is willing to offer $100 cash rebate, then you are paying $400 for a windshield that only costs $385. That doesn't make much sense. Most deductibles however will be less than $250, and lowering your deductible is usually only a couple extra dollars a month. Talk with your auto insurance agent and see how much it costs to lower your deductible to $0 and in most cases you will find it to be a no brainer since the reason you should be paying for insurance in the first place is in case of an emergency. 

When you pay for insurance to cover broken glass for vandalism or natural causes, I am sure you don't want to be paying $500 to be getting it fixed. Yes you save a few dollars a month on your car insurance, but is it really worth it in the long run? While most people will use insurance to cover auto glass replacements in Arizona there are a few reasons to pay cash, Phoenix Auto Glass wants to make sure that you're getting accurate information when it comes to replacing your auto glass, so we wanted to include an example of a case where you should just use cash for your auto glass replacement.

Are Windshields Made of Plexiglass?
By Phoenix Auto Glass 15 Feb, 2024
Windshields are not made of plexiglass due to safety, durability, and visibility concerns. Traditional automotive glass is designed to crumble into small, blunt pieces upon impact to minimize injury to passengers. Plexiglass, while resistant to shattering, does not break in a manner that is safe for passengers during collisions.
