Yesterday while driving my lovely (blech) HOUR commute I heard a rock hit my windshield. F$%K!
I could see the tiniest crack, star shaped almost.
At the next red light I leaned over and tried to see if I could feel it at all.
Nope, smooth.
OK, I get out of the car when I got home and felt the place but this time on the outside, nope, can feel nothing.
No biggie I thought.
This mornings drive was uneventful.
This afternoon, however, was bad.
I didn't notice anything while driving home but when I got out of the car I looked back and noticed the small star nick was now a horizontal crack on my windshield measuring about 15 inches long.
DOUBLE F#CK!!
Yes, I'm covered. Glass coverage is something I have always had...just in case.
My problem was I have a $1000 deductible. It is stupid I know, but it saves me money.
Damn damn damn, I don't have cash right now to lay out for this!
I try to call the dealer to see how much they would charge, got no answer, left a message.
I then called GEICO (love them) to ask where they would send me anyhow and how much it would cost.
ZIPPO, nothing nada, zilch!!
Yep, there is some statute which makes glass coverage FREE. The fee is NOT subject to my deductible!
WOOO HOOOOOOO.
Get this, they even come to your house to fix!
It will be fixed when I get home Friday morning.
We are leaving tomorrow after work-- about 6 pm.
The drive will take 10-12 hours. I hope the glass holds up.
I hope I also don't get a ticket.
I hope that if I do get pulled over I can show them I have an appointment to have it fixed.
MURPHY!
I wish he would stop following me around.
