- Thread starter Peelz
- Start date
Tesla fixed in one day, wife got an old model S to drive around Bloomington. how exciting lol
Insurance a struggle. the fact it is a reimbursement, I wont get my payout for 30 days. progressive....
I expected difficulty on some things, because its only a year and a half old car model.... but it still sucks.

State Farm had a check in my hand, before the repair. Based on the estimate.
I did book the replacement out 3-4 weeks based on my schedule, so that helped.
Hey did Tesla cover it ? Or did you pay out pocket? I have the same exact problem with MY LR. I just got my Model Y two weeks ago and last Friday my wife and I was leaving to take a long drive from Seattle to Vancouver BC. My wife noticed the cracked from the passenger side. It was a long cracked from top edge to about 4 inches below the rear view mirror with no signs of rock chips or puncture. It looks like it cracked by itself.

Nope no warranty like i t hought.
rock chip. insurance claim. $500 deductible, I had Had to pay in full, waiting for progressive to hurry up and payout already. They need to fix their system. Their glass claims Goes directly through safelite, but safelite doesnt replace tesla windshields. So its kinda of a circle of nonsense.
I have a 1/2 inch crack on the passenger side caused by a rock impact. Filed the claim immediately with my insurance co. ($50 deductible) and went to Safelite. They were very knowledgable about Tesla glass, but at this time, said to just leave it and keep watch on it, because attempting to fix it will make it worse. It has been about a week and it hasn't spread, and the weather here has been up in the mid 60s and down below freezing, with pre-heating the car, nothing has spread yet. I've had my local SC (Sterling, VA) already replace the roof and windshield previously, and it was pretty painless.
lucky.
LOL
Safgelite flat out just said "we dont do tesla windshields" LOL
but thats replacing, not fixing.
PS. Have a Tesla Y just one-year-old and got a crack in the windshield. No rock that we heard. Just came out one morning to a 6" crack?! We have had some seriously cold weather. I wondering about the temperature changes and if there is something in the design that makes the model susceptible to
yep.
I shouted form the rooftops it was a flaw. looked at close with reading glasses on and shop light. small crack. I think they are a little weak but, they rarely just "crack"
Just following up - have experienced many broad swings in temperature, freezing rain, snowstorms, highway driving, etc. and there has been no change at all to the 1/2 inch crack. So no reason to repair at this time.
Today a rock hit my Tesla MYP & caused a 10” crack. Extremely frustrating car is 1 month old and less than 500 miles. Submitted a claim thru State Farm using their app. Waiting to hear back. Question I have can glass shops do the replacement (are oem windshields available and how long to get one). And are they able to calibrate the cameras or does Tesla SC have to do that? Thanks for any info.
I believe State Farm had Tesla glass listed as OEM is ok. I did mine at Tesla and submitted the receipt to State Farm and it was covered. Cheaper at Tesla than at other body shops.
