First priorities

Keep people and pets away from loose glass. Avoid operating a rear defroster or moving damaged trim. Do not tape over paint or sensors without understanding the material.

General guidance

What affects the work

A technician identifies the exact body style and glass features, checks the opening and surrounding components, and plans interior cleanup.

  • Defroster and antenna connections
  • Factory or applied tint
  • Spoilers, wipers, cameras, and trim
  • Glass inside panels, cargo areas, or upholstery
03
Provider-dependent

Ask the provider

Confirm part features, cleanup scope, interior protection, electrical checks, and written terms.

Only an in-person assessment by a qualified auto-glass technician can determine the appropriate work for a particular vehicle.

This guide is not a repair shop. A request may later be shared with an independent provider only after that provider is verified and routing is enabled.
