- 1). Call your insurance company. Ask if windshield replacement is covered by your policy and determine the deductible if applicable.
- 2). Obtain the contact information for the other person if your windshield was damaged by a third party. If the windshield was broken by debris from another vehicle, the driver's insurance will be responsible for replacing your windshield.
- 3). Buy windshield repair resin to fill the crack and prevent it from spreading. Clean the windshield with soap and water, then use a razor blade to carefully remove any debris from the crack. Fill the crack using the liquid resin, following the manufacturer's directions.
- 4). Ask your insurance company what your state's Department of Transportation rules and regulations are concerning a cracked windshield. Some states will allow you to drive with a broken windshield while others consider it a ticketable offense. Be aware of your state's laws if you must continue to drive with a broken windshield.
