​

Windshield Replacement

A damaged windshield is more than a cosmetic problem.

The windshield contributes to visibility, occupant protection and the structural integrity of the vehicle.

Modern windshields may also contain or support:

• Cameras

• Sensors

• Rain sensing equipment

• Heating elements

• Antennas

• Heads up display components

• Advanced Driver Assistance System equipment

Kool2U can inspect the windshield and determine the proper replacement requirements for the vehicle.

​

Door Glass and Side Window Replacement

Broken or damaged side glass can expose a vehicle to weather, theft and additional interior damage.

Kool2U provides replacement of many types of side glass, including:

• Front door glass

• Rear door glass

• Fixed side glass

• Quarter glass

• Other vehicle specific side windows

We can also inspect the related window mechanism when a window will not move properly.

​

Back Glass Replacement

Rear glass can be damaged by impacts, temperature changes, accidents or other causes.

Many rear windows incorporate additional features such as:

• Defroster grids

• Antennas

• Tinting

• Electrical connections

• Vehicle specific trim

Kool2U can determine the correct replacement glass and related requirements for your vehicle.

​

Power Window and Window Regulator Problems

Sometimes the glass itself is not the problem.

If a window:

• Will not move

• Falls into the door

• Moves slowly

• Makes grinding or clicking noises

• Moves unevenly

• Stops partway

• Works intermittently

The problem may involve the window regulator, motor, switch, wiring or another component.

Because Kool2U is also a full service automotive repair facility, we can diagnose both the glass and the electrical or mechanical system that operates it.

​

OEM and OEE Auto Glass Options

Kool2U can source different types of replacement glass depending on the vehicle, availability and customer preference.

OEE Auto Glass

OEE stands for Original Equipment Equivalent.

Quality OEE glass is designed to meet appropriate specifications for the vehicle and will normally be the option we offer because it can provide excellent quality at a lower cost than manufacturer branded glass.

For many customers, OEE represents the best balance of quality and price.

OEM Auto Glass

OEM glass is produced for or branded by the vehicle manufacturer.

OEM glass may be available for selected vehicles at the customer's request.

Availability and cost vary considerably by vehicle, and insurance coverage may affect whether an insurer authorizes OEM glass.

Kool2U can discuss the available options before replacement.

​

Can Kool2U Handle Auto Glass Insurance Claims?

Yes. Kool2U can process eligible auto glass claims electronically with traditional North American automobile insurance companies.

That may include major carriers such as:

• State Farm

• GEICO

• Progressive

• Allstate

• USAA

• Farmers

• Nationwide

• Other traditional automotive insurers

Coverage depends on the individual insurance policy, deductible, claim eligibility and insurer requirements.

Kool2U does not determine whether a loss is covered by the policy. Your insurance company makes the final coverage decision.

What About Gap Coverage or Other Nontraditional Coverage?

Auto glass claims are processed through traditional automobile insurance coverage when applicable.

Programs such as gap coverage, health insurance or unrelated protection products are not the same as an automobile glass insurance claim.

If you are unsure whether your windshield or other glass damage is covered, Kool2U can help you understand what information your automobile insurer may require.

​

Do I Have to Use the Glass Company My Insurance Company Recommends?

In many situations, customers have a choice of repair facility even when insurance is involved.

Your insurer may recommend or provide information about participating providers, but you can ask whether Kool2U can perform the work under your policy.

Coverage, deductibles, glass selection and authorization requirements vary by insurer and policy.

​

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Windshield Replacement

Many newer vehicles use cameras and sensors mounted near or behind the windshield as part of an Advanced Driver Assistance System.

These systems may support features such as:

• Lane departure warning

• Lane keeping assistance

• Forward collision warning

• Automatic emergency braking

• Adaptive cruise control

• Traffic sign recognition

• Automatic high beams

Replacing the windshield on these vehicles may require camera or sensor calibration.

Kool2U can determine whether calibration procedures apply to your vehicle.

ADAS Calibration After Windshield Replacement

Calibration requirements vary by manufacturer and vehicle.

Kool2U performs applicable dynamic ADAS calibration in house.

When a vehicle requires static ADAS calibration, Kool2U can coordinate that service through a qualified partner.

This allows the windshield replacement and required safety system procedures to be handled as part of the overall repair process.

​

Auto Glass Leak Diagnosis

Water entering around a windshield or other automotive glass should be investigated.

Possible causes can include:

• Failed glass seal

• Improper previous installation

• Damaged molding

• Body seam leaks

• Drainage problems

• Corrosion

• Other body or weather sealing concerns

The source of water inside a vehicle is not always the glass itself, so diagnosis is important before replacing components unnecessarily.

​

Why Proper Auto Glass Installation Matters

Replacing automotive glass involves more than removing one piece of glass and installing another.

Proper installation can affect:

• Water sealing

• Wind noise

• Visibility

• Glass positioning

• Vehicle structural performance

• Airbag operation

• ADAS camera alignment

• Trim fit

• Long term durability

The correct glass, installation materials and procedures should be used for the vehicle.

​
