    I got caught in a massive hailstorn with golf ball size hail in my
    Sante Fe. I finally got shelter under a bridge on the freeway. When
    it was over I walked around the car in the parking lot of a hotel &
    the body came out perfect bit what I thought was a dead bug was a chip
    out of the windshield near my lef eye vision area. Can it be fixed
    instead of a whole new indshield cost?

    Sure it can---

    Almost all insurance companies nowadays will pay to have rock dings/chips
    repaired and they will waive your deductible----just look in the yellow
    pages under windshield repair. Be sure to call your insurance company
    first---sometimes they will refer you to the repair company, and most will
    come to you to do the repair---

  3. And the best way to get another chip in your windshield is to replace it.
    Never fails for me! <G>

    Correct FerdyPooh! I phoned Allstate & they called Autolite Glass to
    come over the next morning & he filled in the ding. MAGIC! It is
    also covered for life of the car that I own for a larger flaw. So if
    the spiderweb shows, they buy the new windshield. My DH was very
    happy with that. That paperwork states Allstate pay $14 for the
    repair.

    Amazing all the toys this guy had & how it filled it right in. Just a
    small hair left & I really don't notice it like the "big dead bug"
    look I did have.

    Today he is 4 houses down doing the same thing for a guy who was nosey
    asking if I got a new windshield. So now he called for his 3
    dings......
