Well, I made the mistake of waiting too long to get the rock chip repaired.

Should I use my insurance or just pay cash? Safelite quoted me about $375.

I’m assuming if I got your insurance I have to pay my deductible anyway which means I’d be paying $375 anyway?

Must be a car without all the bells and whistles. That's a great price.

You are correct in your assumptions and $375 is cheap, cash all day

Check that your insurance doesn't have a zero or lower deductible for glass

This. Your glass deductible is likely cheaper. Mine is 75-100 I think.

My concern is having it increase my rate.

Watch out for Safelite.. If your car has any type of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) on the windshield..

Yep, as much as I want a new car with bells and whistles, it’s nice knowing that

Yes you would have to pay your deductible so not worth doing insurance

You’ll almost definitely get a better price at some place besides Safelite
