When does Oklahoma law require a windshield replacement?
Oklahoma law prohibits driving with outright windshield breakage, a star break or shot damage of 3 inches or more in the critical area, or two or more hairline cracks totaling 12 inches or more. Replacement glass must be laminated safety glass marked AS-1 and comply with state glazing rules. Damage in the rain sensor area also often calls for replacement.
Does insurance cover hail damage in Oklahoma City?
The Oklahoma Insurance Department says comprehensive coverage may help pay for windshield and auto body damage caused by hail. It advises reporting hail-related vehicle damage to your insurer as soon as possible. Severe hail storms have caused millions of dollars of damage across the metro.
How long does rain sensor windshield replacement take?
A replacement appointment includes installation labor of roughly 1.5 to 2.2 hours, plus one-hour adhesive time before you can drive. Oklahoma City's July average high of 94°F speeds adhesive cure, while the January average low of 26°F can slow it. Ask the pro for safe-drive-away timing for your appointment day.
