I don't think they will cover that under warranty, but I know they can repair small chips at a good Auto glass place. Ask your dealer first!!!

 

Most insurance policies have a deal in place with a national windscreen company that will allow you to get a new windscreen for a nominal fee. Especially if the defect is in your driving line-of-sight. So, I would start by reviewing the detail of your insurance.

 

for about $50.00 you can have someone repair it. In most cases if the chip is small enough you can't even tell it was there.

 

i wouldn't worry abt it.......unless its affecting ur vision

 

thanks everyone!

Get it fixed because if it is cracked just right, it will spread out and ruin your entire windshield.

 

2 years ago I found a big scratch and when I say big 1-2cm big for 2-door cars, anyway someone told me to put tooth paste on it and leave it dry. It should be applied multiple times; apparently tooth pastes have some kind of polishing component. It wouldn't help much but at least it will smoothen the surface of the scratch.
