My windshield now has a 9 inch crack up the center, just wanted to know if people had went through nissan to get it replace or just a local windshield guy. Also has there been any problems with the replacement do they use an OEM glass?
Thanks

I also have a big crack going down the center of my windshield. Im gonna try and claim it on insurance. There aint no telling how much the windshield is.
If you have comprehensive insurance, there should be little or no out of pocket $$$. I would use the dealer if you can. the other guys do a good job, but the gaskets they use don't quite fit correctly.

I had mine replaced for around $300 at a local place. Looks great don't leak.

I was thinking of using the dealer but I think they subcontract the work out to the 30 minute guys and charge me dealership prices

Thats bull...SO many freakin Titan owners have windshield cracks...Do they use cheap glass or whats up? Will the replacement glass crack just as easily?? I havent changed mine out yet but think I might soon...
If you can show that it is a stress crack, they will replace it under warranty. If it has the slightest nick or chip in it, they will charge you for the replacement.
I had mine replaced under warranty due to a crack at the top driver side. They did have a glass guy come out and replace it. They did as near perfect of a job as is humanly possible. Haven't had a problem since.

happens to more cars than you would think. My cherokee has 3 windshields and the s-10 I had went through 2 or 3. IT's just alot of glass and if it gets stressed or chipped in the right way it will crack.

You can have it replaced anywhere and request an OEM windshield. I've done this twice before without any problems.

I think mine was hit by a meteor, whatever it was it hit hard made a big chip then in 5 minutes it was 3" and within 3 hours it was 9". I was on the freeway so there was alot of wind pressure.

How much did you pay and I will be moving to Clarksville, TN from Enterprise, AL do you think its safe at freeway speeds until I get to my new home?
Yes, it's safe.
There is a sheet of clear laminate between the glass. More than likely the crack is outside only.
