Damn. I remember people with GTPs and HUD getting their windshield replaced opting for regular windshields saying that they couldnt tell that much of a difference. I didnt think today they would have sensors and such. Or are they cameras behind the windshield that cant see through properly?

Looks like it’s the camera/sensor for the stop and lane departure warning system. I think I am going to give the vatozone windshield repair kit a try first.
Or call your insurance and give them the. "Hey the guys and I were talking insurance at work today. A few of them mentioned having glass coverage being we are traveling salesman and we are on the road so often. Can you check if I have that coverage, and if not how much to add it." Add the coverage and claim it in October or November.

But if he hasn't already told them he drives his car that much for work already, they are gonna bend him over a barrel and show him the 50 states if he does that.

Well he gets the idea I hope. Take my idea, switch it up and run with it.

Update: so I looked up how to fix windshield with the little $10 kits and thought I would give it a shot (pun intended). Definitely looks better but fixed it about 70% due to the damage. I called my agent this morning to cancel the road side assistance and asked about windshield coverage. He said I already have it and it’s not extra. It isn’t a line item like roadside assistance and part of the comprehensive plan zero deductible. I asked why i couldn’t get my Jetta covered and he said it must depend on the vehicle if they have these high tech cameras. So I got that going for me…

The policy covers some windshields, but not others?

I don't think the insurance company will give you a hard time about trying to epoxy the chip. If anything, just tell them you have a large chip in your line of sight. When I had the windshield in my Escape replaced, nobody from the insurance company even looked at it. I just told them I had a large rock chip in my line of sight and would like my windshield replaced. They sent someone from Gerber to my house to replace it.
