Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / General Car Topics / April 2007Replacement Windshield Glass Distortions
Has anyone ever had a problem with glass distortions on a replaced windshield? I recently had my windshield replaced. When I look through the windshield it feels like I have the wrong prescription of glasses. They glass was made by XYG Safety Glass. I called the company who installed the windshield, Safelite Autoglass. They were very nice and promptly scheduled a warrantee replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement window also had a distortion. The technician was good enough to see the second distortion before attempting to install the windshield. They have finally got an OEM windshield which will be replaced tomorrow. Hopefully all will be well after that and I won't have to drive around with an airsick bag at the ready. > Has anyone ever had a problem with glass distortions on a replaced > windshield?

Cheap does as cheap is. Applies to automotive parts, just like jewelry, wives, husbands, and parachutes. Yes I had to have three windshields installed before I got a good one. The last one is still just a little bad in some spots but not nearly as bad as the other two were. I think we can bad our cheap auto insurance companies for this. They would not pay for an OEM windshield. > Has anyone ever had a problem with glass distortions on a replaced > windshield? I recently had my windshield replaced.

I don't have these problems. I tried safelite once, it lasted a month. Never again! Safelite sucks! How do you think they can beat any area competitor's price by 10%? It's called: "Send me any seconds you got" There are 2 PPG wholesalers in the area, no problems, two LOF wholesalers in the area, no problem. The insurance company wants cheap! That's why when they pay four hours for a frame/uni-body job, I punch in, and at 4 hours I stop and take pictures and videos. Insurance companies are not interested in the pre-accident condition, they want it done as cheap as possible, and screw the insured. RK >I buy OEM auto glass. I don't have these problems.
