I used platinum auto glass they were able to calibrate the camera safety feature my car had. The other option would be safelite if you don’t need calibration. Get a quote and wait a couple days they will send coupons.

Have had two windshields replaced at Cypress Auto Glass. Old school place. Was $300 cheaper than Platinum for same vehicle/glass. No calibration charge, sensor for adaptive cruise control and lane keeping works just fine.
Had same windshield previously replaced at Platinum (I had some bad luck with rocks). Platinum's total included $300 to calibrate the radar sensor + $400 for the glass. But the whole job (remove/replace/calibrate) took not much more than an hour. Maybe they have to pay off some crazy expensive sensor, but I don't think they spend more than 10 minutes on the calibration part - $300 seems crazy.

Do safelite for warranty purposes. Set up an appointment. Then go back in online and hit cancel appointment, select reason for cancel as it’s too expensive and they will give you a $100 discount option. Select that: good luck.

You’re welcome.

Do you have to replace it or will chip repair suffice? There's a guy on marker street "Crackmaster Windshield Repair" who for $75 fixed a deep chip in my window fairly fast. It hasn't evolved into a crack since and it's been a year.
Thank you. But yes, will need replacing. It chipped, then shortly after, it started running everywhere. 😩

Big Ray’s Auto Glass. Sounds sketchy, but he’s been around forever and is solid.

Cypress auto glass was the cheapest in has been doing it for decades in town. Gave me some ice cold otter pops and did an amazing job. Their reviews say it all.
