The BMW shop broke my windshield when they were making other repairs on the pillar air bag after my accident. After it was replaced I had a horrible whistle from the wind that drove me nuts until i tracked it down to the windshield.
I was driving it to another dealer to trade it when I figured out it was the windshield making the noise.

My previous e60 - had it not even a month when a truck kicked up a rock right into my windshield. It cracked the inside layer but not the outside glass. Go figure. The inside crack was about 2". I filed a claim and Safelite did the replacement. They picked up a windshield from my local BMW dealer and used that - but I had to bring the car to their shop. They didn't want to do it onsite by me. No deductible and my rates didn't go up. I got very lucky.
Let us know how it turns out for you. Good luck.
