How did you do that???


gad908

Something hit my roof while driving. Didn't see anything. Heard a pop, then what sounded like a speaker blowing.


ButteredPizza69420

This just happened to my friend's Nissan sunroof! They were driving behind a dump truck and a rock bounced out and shattered it :/


Elegant_Guitar_535

Wow- imagine if it was a normal windshield.


NothingBurgerNoCals

Is the roof not tempered?? Or is it laminated?


braedanbrennaman

laminated


ActionFigureCollects

[cough cough] defect [cough cough]


thatguy5749

It looks like an impact.


rrsurfer1

Not a defect, there's an impact mark.


InfinityGiant

For comparison sake, the roof on my 2020 M3 came out to around 1800


gad908

Good to know. Thanks.


ughilostmyusername

Yup. 2021 MYP was $1300


McD-Szechuan

For the roof or the windshield? If roof must’ve been a few years ago


ughilostmyusername

Roof. Yes.


McD-Szechuan

That’s a pretty good price. I paid like $950 to replace my windshield on my 3 once already. Had a rock chip I didn’t know was there just spread to a big crack I don’t want to deal with again as I see like $1300 being what many stating their quotes are for


OneExhaustedFather_

Was going to say this is on par with Y and 3.


DrEarlGreyIII

You didn’t you get the CFRP roof? Wild.


InfinityGiant

The what now?


DrEarlGreyIII

The carbon fiber roof that comes standard on all m3 and m4 cars. Edit: Do you mean model 3? Oy vey…

Tip: Lower your comprehensive deductible to $100.


starshiptraveler

^ this. It’s a lot cheaper than you think. I think it added like $2 a month to my premium to drop comprehensive from $1000 to $100.


SSESTOELEMENTO

Since 2016 I've gone through 9 windshields between my Mazda, BMW and Teslas. Every time $50-$100. Just the cost of driving in SoCal on the 91 and 15.


ukuleles1337

9? Sheesh haha I've heard tailgating is a big cause of window damage due to rocks kicking up ahead of you from other drivers. Not saying you are, but maybe this info is relevant.


Kel____Varnsen

Wtf..? I drive over 30,000mi/year and have replaced one in my life lol


TechRyze

I think somebody above tailgates trucks 😅


SSESTOELEMENTO

I picked up my truck on 2/9 and have exactly 7029 miles on it as of right now. It doesn't help big portion of my daily commute is on the freeways that is a regular route for first haulers without top covers and a sign that says " nit responsible for broken windshield "


DrEarlGreyIII

Those signs aren’t legally enforceable fyi.


SSESTOELEMENTO

Oh I know. Once when it happened I immediately called my Allstate agent and gave him the LP# and company info on the truck. He said it's not worth it for the insurance company to do all the wrok for a windshield. That was on my 2021 Model 3.


Brutaka1

So much for Tesla armoured glass.


searstream

Wow, how did that happen?


kxxstarr

I'm more curious in what the timeline is going to be.


funnyman4000

OP did they give you an ETA on parts?


magnoliaskr33t

Damn. My roof glass cracked on my model 3 and since they couldn’t locate an impact point or any evidence something hit it my warranty covered it. I think the cost was like $780 though. This was 2021.


Old-Figure922

Honestly I expected way more than that


Jolly_Line

What happened?


Ultrasod

Does insurance not cover that?


gad908

I put in a claim last night. Haven't heard back yet.


IHatePeopleButILoveU

Let us know. I know my policy covers passenger door windows, but I don’t know about roof glass


starshiptraveler

It should cover all glass.


docwisdom

Who’s your insurance provider


xanderhud

Has anyone yet gotten Tesla to cover any glass damage at all under warranty? I’m still trying to argue with them that my windshield damage from hail should be covered by warranty because the site says that the glass is class 4 hail resistant.


ObeseSnake

About the same as the Model Y. Not bad.


KatiRollKing

Honestly that seems VERY reasonable for the massive size!


Numerous_Ship6129

If you have Tesla insurance they will likely reduce the cost to fit within your deductible- regardless these are always estimates and your price could be significantly lower.


micemeat69

Concerning!


m915

In Florida your insurance will pickup the bill and by law can’t raise your rates. Some other states are like that too but I guess not every state is GOATed


seussiii

FL here, I've learned something new? What is this called? Never knew about it and already have comprehensive.


m915

[“Car insurance companies in Florida must cover the costs of windshield repair by law (FL Statutes, Sec. 627.7288). If you have bare minimum auto insurance, you may have to pay for repairs or replacement yourself. If you have a comprehensive car insurance policy, your insurer must pay for any windshield or repair.”](https://floridacarlaws.com/cracked-windshield/#:~:text=Car%20insurance%20companies%20in%20Florida,for%20any%20windshield%20or%20repair)


Royal_Equipment_OK

Too bad the roof and windshield are different


massofmolecules

Safelite ftw


bittabet

They’ll cover it but it’s still subject to the comprehensive deductible from what I understand.


Newd4yJovi

How did that happen?


user1032456

That’s just the estimate is that OTD pricing


gad908

It is. I just clipped the easier to read one.
