We performed a chip repair on this Tesla Model 3 to prevent the chip from spreading and requiring a full windshield replacement. As a rule of thumb if the chip is less than the size of a loonie and if it hasn’t developed further cracking, it can be repaired. Repairing is a great option as it’s quick and less invasive than replacement. With certain vehicles as parts can be hard to find, a professional repair will also incur significantly shorter lead times than replacement.

If you have comprehensive coverage from ICBC, you are eligible for a free windshield chip repair, no deductible required. A properly repaired windshield will not be compromised in terms of structural integrity and will be fully safe to use. Feel free to bring your vehicle by for a free consultation on whether repair or replacement would be appropriate. Below is an example of an unrepairable windshield.
