I thought I would post this here as an FYI...
I took my car up to Birmingham at the end of Jan, the north and midlands had been experiencing high winds at the time and unfortunately, a stone ended up chipping and cracking my Model 3 windscreen Thankfully it was on the passenger side, and doesn't affect my driving the vehicle (other than looking a little ugly on a lovely car). At the time I contacted Autoglass but they said they had no Tesla windscreens available and they would have to source one.
Fast forward a month and Autoglass still can't source a windscreen. I just rang Tesla to find out if I can get them to do it directly, the adviser on the phone told me that they also don't have any replacement windscreens. That they are changing suppliers and the earliest ETA they have is the end of March Right now the crack hasn't gotten bigger so I am fine, but I asked him if the crack gets worse and I am unable to drive the Tesla, then what? He replied that he isn't sure what can be done, that usually they only provide replacement vehicles if the car is in service.
So, right now I am ok, but TBH, it's something that is making me nervous. It's been a month and the chip + crack are the same as when it first happened, but *if* it gets worse, I am not sure Tesla will do anything about it
Anyway, I thought I would let you all know. I hope none of you crack your windscreens before April.
