Pretty much. Same deal on the Corolla.
Just out of curiosity I checked safelite.com and they don’t even offer a replace option on this year/make/model. Only repair, and this crack is well beyond the repair limit.
- redis_mlc 7y agoIn aviation, we stop-drill the ends of cracks in aluminum to stop propagation by diffusing the stress point. If you need to wait 6 months, you might want to investigate doing that.
- hinkley 7y agoHoney I’m going out to drill some holes in your windshield. ... okay?
- greglindahl 7y agoThat's what the "repair limit" is.
- fludlight 7y agoDrilling specialty tempered glass is not advisable.
- lostgame 7y agoReturn the Corolla while you still can. This is hot garbage.
- jsight 7y agoBecause part availability isn't 100% just yet, it is "hot garbage"? That seems like a stretch. TBH, this kind of thing happens pretty regularly with various parts. Usually the delay doesn't end up being 6 months, but often those kinds of estimates are on the pessimistic side. It isn't unusual for places like Safelite to be dependent upon the manufacturer's glass, especially on newer cars.
