What kinds of questions should I ask when having my windshield replaced?

I have a crack about 1 inch long and about 1 inch away from the edge of my windshield (one of the worst places to have a crack, so I'm told). I had a guy ';fix'; the crack, but there are still tiny ones down within the glass. He said if it's going to continue to crack, I'll know within the next few weeks. What I'm really irritated about is that I'm told that no glass place will ever replace the windshield with the same quality as the factory seal. Is this true? And what kinds of questions should I ask when I start looking for an auto glass place? I have a 2006 Mazda6. Yeah, I've only had it 14 months. I'm kinda homicidal right now.What kinds of questions should I ask when having my windshield replaced?
That is a myth, Any auto glass replacement shop has to meet certain DOT specs.

Your glass will continue to crack. Did a rock hit it, do you have insurance. pay the deductible for comprehensive which is usually 100 bucks and have the insurance company pay for it this is what insurance is for. It is called an act of God....or deer or rock...Unless you have a crappy insurance comapny like progressive or gecko.....Also all glass companies will warranty the glass to not leak EVER. that is the one to buy. check the leak guarantee.What kinds of questions should I ask when having my windshield replaced?
Ask around as to price and guarantees against leakage etc. Most modern windshield glass is pretty thin, but the good news is that is is safety glass so no worries about pieces falling into your lap. Also ask how long it will take.
Your new windshield will be just fine. Stick with a reputable business that is recommended by your insurance company. You have a deductible, but the insurance will pay the rest of the bill. Decide whether you want the tint to be like your current windshield.
I recently had a new windshield installed in my 2005 Mazda6.They did a great job and the bill was $140,it's not that big a deal.Go worry about something else LOL
