Free Windshield Replacement Through Insurance — California Guide
Quick Answer: Is Windshield Replacement Free with Insurance in California?
In California, windshield chip repair is $0 with no deductible under most comprehensive auto insurance policies. Full windshield replacement is covered under comprehensive insurance — your out-of-pocket cost equals your deductible, typically $0-$200. California Insurance Code Section 758.5 gives you the legal right to choose any licensed auto glass company, including Auto Renu (1-800-684-3629), instead of Safelite. Auto Renu handles the entire insurance claim at no charge.
