Windshield Insurance
Some automotive glass repair companies may appear to be working in tandem with insurance providers, which might seem beneficial but could potentially harm you. For instance, in Florida, there’s a law stipulating that if you have full coverage insurance and your windshield develops a chip or crack, your insurance company is obligated to foot the bill for both the replacement and calibration of your windshield, costing them approximately $750. Consequently, these repair companies, often collaborating closely with insurance firms, might push for repairing rather than replacing your windshield.
Were you aware that even a minor chip or crack in a windshield can lead to breakage under minimal pressure? Moreover, such weakened glass can compromise the effectiveness of your Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), which is integrated into your windshield to enhance safety during lane changes, emergency braking, and more. Despite Florida law mandating windshield replacement, these repair shops, whether owned by insurance companies or in partnership with them, prioritize saving money over ensuring your family’s safety.
Did you know that opting for a windshield repair company that disregards Florida state laws regarding windshield replacement and calibration could potentially render your vehicle’s advanced driver assistance systems less effective? Consequently, in the event of a major accident, your insurance company might nullify your coverage, leaving you financially liable for damages to vehicles, properties, and individuals. In severe cases involving injuries, you might even face criminal charges.
However, there’s no need to worry, as Florida law mandates that your insurance company must replace your windshield and cover the cost of calibration. For more information, refer to the official Florida statutes: View Link.
