help needed ASAP

[Baby D]

I'm driving to my sisters wedding glastonbury, I'm stuck in reading done below limit as lots of traffic have 20cm crack in my windscreen AA won't fix it as its not a breakdown, so am cancelling it tomorrow, autoglass said they are not emergency and will not come out till Monday. Wtf do I do?!

 

[seb]

no issues tbh, it isn't as if the windscreen will cave in on you. well it shouldn't

i've got a 20cm crack in my 197 at present on the left hanfsdie due to a massive stone chip. been like it for over 1000 miles tbh.

This is right in front of my face though!!

Not lived till you've driven a car home in the rain with no windscreen.

Call your insurance company.

 

[Baby D]

Told me 2 call autoglass

 

[seb]

or just drive it till monday.

As long as you can see where you're going it'll survive til Monday

Enjoy the wedding!

Just ignore it. Have a good time!

Then on Monday, if you're fully comp, stick in a glass claim. Costs a small excess, less than £100 (never seen one as high as £100, but I'm sure someone will correct me...) and Autoglass will be out the same day. If you're not fully comp, then get lubed up

Baws to it. Just keep driving and get it fixed on monday. It wont cave in on you as its laminated.

My mate has been driving round with a huge crack in his front screen for months ! It will be alreet.

If in doubt smack the thing and make it big enough for them to come and fix it there and then ...

Make it an emergency!

 

[Baby D]

hmmmm @ Baggers.... sarcasm or friendlyness?! Lol..

well, i got there n back.. spoke to an RAC guy who says they cover windscreens and the bash the ZS took a few years ago, so whole familys moving to them!!

 

[Baby D]

Update -- Autoglass came out on Monday, cost me £70.. He said if i wasnt fully comp it could have been about £300 because of the rain/light sensitiveness!!! *gosh*

 

[cat171]

Autogalss are a frickin con for screens. The £70 isn't bad at all though.
