Safelite AutoGlass

Filed a claim with USAA to have my windshield replaced and they partner with Safelite. The technician was very nice and showed up during his timeframe. The windshield repair was good work mostly with some small damage to my inside interior by the left side of the windshield. Technician completed the job in about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Scheduled date had to be moved by 1 day the day before the appointment Safelite agent called to change it due to the windshield not arriving. It cause me to have to make changes to my other appointments. After completion of the windshield. I noticed my hood lever did not work and I could not open my SUV hood the technician broke the lever and didn’t say anything upon his departure. I called to make a claim to schedule for Safelite to come back and fix my hood lever. Appointment was made and then cancelled again. Had to make another appointment to get my hood level fixed. They suppose to come back tomorrow. I’ll write another review after tomorrow to see if they fixed my hood lever. Overall disappointed due to damage to my interior wall and over damage.

We were out of town for a surgery when our truck was broken into. Upon calling our insurance we booked a mobile appointment with Safelite to have our rear passenger door window repaired for the following day (Thursday). On the day of our appointment we received a call from the tech letting us know that the wrong part was ordered. They then rescheduled the appointment for in shop for Friday. When we arrived to the shop on Friday once again we were told that the wrong window was ordered. They scheduled us for Sunday since they would be working on appointments due to the upcoming 4th of July holiday. On Saturday we stopped by and spoke to the shop manager and she did reassure us that the correct part would be there on Sunday. Well Sunday morning we received a call just to let us know that they did not get a delivery. This was so frustrating being that we were not from San Antonio. We came home called a local shop on a Sunday afternoon and by Monday morning our window is getting replaced. I was very disappointed with the service we received at this Landmark location.

First off, let me say I rarely leave a negative review. I understand mistakes happen and I always allow ample opportunity for mistakes to be corrected. I rarely see a 1 star review as justified, but this one definitely is. Please read for further: I brought my Corvette in to have its windshield replaced on 09/08/2023 through my insurance. The windshield replacement seemed to be good. After the required waiting period (48 hours, although I waited longer) I washed my vehicle. While washing my vehicle, I noticed a water leak coming through the side that was not present whenever I brought my car to them. I called and opened a warranty claim, went in a 09/21/2023. They tried to claim it wasn't their fault, then pointed out the gasket around the windshield was the issue. I asked them if they remove the gasket to install the windshield, they said "yes". I then informed them that it wasn't leaking prior to their work, and the piece that they messed with was the alleged culprit. They tried to fix it in house, but failed. (That was another visit that I had to return for on 09/29/2023) They tried to fenagle out of ordering a replacement piece, but eventually they did. They installed the replacement piece, and that too, did not fix their mistake. throughout the entire process, I had to keep re-explaining the issue and they would keep trying to shift liability to me, instead of taking responsibility for their mistake. I would have the same conversations over and over. I spoke with them and told them that the problem still isn't fixed, and they made me set up another warranty appointment so they could "evaluate it". That appointment was on 10/09/2023. I ended up having to reschedule this appointment, which ended up having to be all the way out on 10/30/2023. I had to drive all the way out to them, just for them to not even look at the vehicle and tell me they'd have to order a whole new replacement windshield. I do not understand why I had to come in person just for them to tell me they'd order a new one. That replacement windshield install was then scheduled for 11/16/2023. I arrived at 9AM and waited for them to be done. At approximately 1PM, a tech comes out and says that he cannot find the source of the leak, and insists it's not their fault. I ask him about the second replacement windshield, and he hadn't even replaced it. I'm not sure what exactly he took 4 hours doing, but he didn't even replace the windshield. I had to wait another hour and a half for the replacement. Not only did the replacement NOT fix the issue, a new one arose. The heads up display is blurry now. I brought this to their attention, and they denied it being blurry. I took a photograph of it and showed it to the manager, and he said he said "it doesn't look blurry to me". I have attached a picture of the heads up display so you can decide for yourself. At the end of this ordeal, I have gone out at minimum 5 separate times and this issue still hasn't been fixed. The customer service has been absolutely terrible and at the end of the day, the manager said he has done everything he is going to do. He was no longer interested in fixing the problem. Now, I have to file an additional claim with my insurance to fix their mistake. Obviously, my insurance will be billing them and not me. Also, when they installed my wipers, they installed them wrong. They were trying to overlap each other. To their credit, they fixed this issue and I no longer have a problem with my wipers. I cannot stress enough how terrible of an experience this has been.

Jose communicated before the appointment and showed up as promised. Jose is very nice and professional, I did not receive an updated cost until the broken window was off my vehicle. The cost went from $69 to $569 plus tax, deductible. I get it, I should have known but considering AAA sends you directly to the Safelite site and transfers your information to them, both sides should have known much sooner than the day of service. Minor since it’s on me too, but goes to their business practices. Jose came to my office to fix the windshield. I was in a meeting when he finished, stepped out to pay. AFTER I paid, I was informed the window was defective and my rear view mirror was not able to be reattached, but they would order parts to fix it. I requested a refund and was told it is a warranty issue and not their burden to wait until the repair is actually completed to take payment for their work. All I want is a claw back to give them a reason to show up and correct their work. I am more than willing to pay for a repair done correctly. To be very clear, I did not ask for a discount or free service but did ask that I be refunded until the work is actually completed. They refused. Asa business owner and a person with some common sense, Safelite did not perform the obligated services, did not inform me until AFTER they were paid and now expect me to operate my vehicle illegally and unsafely for at least a week. Think twice before you choose this company.

It has been 34 days since I initially scheduled a windshield replacement (on-line) for my truck, and I still do not have a properly installed and calibrated windshield. During this time, three different Safelite technicians have come to my residence, and I have had to take my vehicle to the Safelite store on one additional occasion. I have had two windshields installed, and calibration has been attempted four times. I have been given FOUR different cost quotes during this period. Three days ago a FIFTH different amount was charged to my credit card without my approval. (I am disputing the charge through my credit card company.) I have emailed Safelite Customer Care on three occasions, and I have personally talked to three Customer Care representatives. In those e-mails, and during those calls I fully and precisely documented Safelite's abysmal service. I have also attempted to call Customer Care on several additional occasions, but no one ever answered. All three Customer Care representatives with whom I spoke PROMISED that I would be contacted by management to resolve the situation. NO MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATIVE HAS EVER CONTACTED ME (by phone, by text, by e-mail, or by mail)! There were no responses to my e-mails! I have maintained full documentation of my unfortunate Safelite experience, including dates of contact/service, cost quotes, emails, and customer care representative names.

My vehicle is a 2023 I needed a new windshield, I made contact and arrange for a first time meet up at my home. The two technicians came out and could not calibrate my vehicle. I was told I had to wait ten days to two weeks for the glue harden because if they tried to put another windshield at that time, it would be just a mess. Is it OK in between that time to four weeks later I receive six different quotes I was being told one thing or another I finally had an appointment for Saturday and some lady by the name of Sally left me a message that because she could not reach me she was going to cancel my appointment which she did. I called back and said no I did not want my service canceled. I have been driving around without my safety features going on a month now I need my windshield done and done correctly now so two days later they came out again different quote we went from $319 all the way up to 1092 six different quotes and yes I made copies of them because this is nothing but BS on their part very unprofessional. That is what I have to say about the whole service is just I don’t even I don’t have words they finally install the correct glass recalibrated sent me a certificate of completion. I thanked them and I paid the quote that was given that was in the middle. That’s the one we settled on
