My Model S plan went from $15->$20 monthly and I’m keeping it. I had to replace a windshield on my BMW earlier this year at $1300 out of pocket.
Pros: cheaper than out of pocket
Cons: increase in cost
Just had mine replaced under the plan, 2022 model Y performance. I had paid three months of premiums and was quoted right around $1500 for a small Chip that had started to spread.
Pros: windshield replaced under plan
Cons: small chip started spreading
Still an amazing deal for me given that I live in Texas and am insured through GEICO.
Pros: cheap coverage
My Model Y 2026 became sorta like this so I used a razor and I was able to scrape some. And I used a microscope to see what it was and couldn’t figure out what it was.
Turns out it was tiny particles of microfiber being stuck due to static and it was very difficult to get off, because it isn’t glue or just sitting there, but stuck there by static electricity. U can’t feel it, and can’t wipe off with ur finger.
I used monitor cleaning spray because they have anti-static stuff on it. Then used Invisible Glass. And they came off.
Pros: particles came off with special spray
Cons: microfiber particles stuck by static, difficult to remove
My Ford Tourneo Connect has developed a fault where the windshield is detaching from the bonding material, a major safety hazard. I've contacted Ford Motor Company in Spain, but they insist there is no recall for my specific vehicle, despite similar issues and a previous recall for the panoramic roof glass using similar bonding.
Cons: detaching windshield, safety hazard, no recall support
Vehicle:
Ford Tourneo Connect I
This has been an issue since the early 2000s the F250s have that same issue my California truck only place it has any body rust is here found it when I changed the windshield and evidence of ingress. No damage thankfully but ford just cannot seal truck windshields properly.
Cons: improper sealing, water ingress, body rust
Vehicle:
Ford
A poorly placed windshield sealant line on my 2020 F-150 led to water leaks in the bottom passenger side corner, dripping onto the BCM. My windshield guy found the sealant bead run right over the corner, a factory kludge, causing BCM issues.
Cons: poor sealant placement, water leaks, BCM issues, factory defect
Vehicle:
Ford
I bought mine with an aftermarket replacement pilkington glass already installed - not sure for how long. So it's been on their at least 7 years now and the quality has degraded more than any other car I've had. There are no cracks or major dings but it just has microscopic pitting all over that glares in the right light. I can clean and claybar it to perfection and it's still not great.
Cons: quality degraded, microscopic pitting, glares in light
I had same experience… a small rock chip expanded into a foot long crack in under a week.
Cons: chip expanded quickly
