Have a cracked windshield or broken car window? If you live in Ohio, your **auto insurance** may cover the cost of repair or replacement. But how does the process actually work? And is it worth filing a claim?
At See Thru Auto Glass, we help drivers across Akron, Ohio and nearby areas file insurance claims for auto glass repairs and replacements. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you understand your options and make the process as simple as possible.
🔍 Is Auto Glass Covered by Insurance in Ohio?
In most cases, **yes** — if you carry **comprehensive coverage**, your policy likely covers glass damage caused by:
- 🪨 Flying rocks or road debris
- 🌪️ Storm damage or fallen branches
- 🚗 Vandalism or attempted break-ins
- 🦌 Animal collisions
However, you may still be responsible for a **deductible**, unless your policy includes **full glass coverage** (some companies offer it as an add-on).
📋 How to File an Auto Glass Insurance Claim
Here’s what to do if your windshield or window is damaged:
- 📸 Take photos of the damage as soon as possible
- 📞 Call your insurance provider or file online
- 📄 Provide details (what happened, when, where)
- 🧾 Ask about your deductible and what’s covered
- ✅ Choose a repair shop — like See Thru Auto Glass
We work directly with most major insurers to make the process easy and stress-free.
💰 What About the Deductible?
Many windshield repairs cost **less than the deductible**, which means you may want to pay out of pocket. However, for full windshield replacement or side and rear window repair, using your insurance can save hundreds of dollars.
Pro Tip: Some policies include **zero-deductible glass coverage**, especially in states like Florida or Arizona. In Ohio, it depends on your provider.
