      On Monday April 21, 2025 a technician from Satelite Auto Glass in ******************************* came to my home to replace a windshield glass in my 2015 ****** RAV4. The glass was replaced and the technician came to my door to say he was finished. When I went out to look at the glass about an hour later I noticed he dented my hood in 2 places. I called the company and they sent out another technician on Tuesday April 22, 2025 to take pictures. He was very nice and tried to remove the dents but he did not have the right tools to do it and was unable to fix them. He called his manager in *********************** and was told there was nothing else they could do for **** am asking that they make arrangements to have a body shop fix the dents that their technician put in the hood. The technician today said they had pictures of the hood before the window replacement and there were no dents in it.

      Hello ******* ****, 

      Please accept my sincerest apologies for this poor experience you've had with us. Per our conversation we are addressing concerns of dented hood being repaired. We have escalated this to the management team in the shop. The shop manager will contact you directly after review of photos submitted on, April 22, 2025. Please reach out to me directly at ************** or reply to this email going forward as correspondence.

      I am rejecting this response because: Safelite Auto Glass of ***********************, ** said even though their technician admitted to denting the hood they will not fix it or reimburse to have it fixed.  They were to call me again yesterday and no one called.  All I asked was for the dents to be fixed that were caused by their person.

      Hello ******* ****, 

      Please accept my sincerest apologies for this poor experience you've had with us. After discussing and reviewing photos our Regional warranty team has concluded that damage was due to the existing damage to the vehicle prior to arrival for service. Due to this existing damage, we will not be moving forward with repairs for this claim.  Please refer to your insurance carrier.

      Complaint: 23238375

      I am rejecting this response because: The damage was not caused by existing damage.  The damage was caused by a careless technician pushing down on the hood with excessive force.  Our local body shop verified that the existing dent had no effect on the damage caused by the technician.

      Good afternoon, 

      Per the review of the pre-inspection photos attached by the Safety and Quality team and the ******************** the final determination is that the damage was pre-existing. The following information was provided by our Safety Quality team:

      The pre-existing dent weakened the surface structural integrity of the hood and caused the hood to be misshapen. Had the hood been in normal, serviceable condition, then the technician would have been able to open it normally instead of needing the customer to open the hood for him. With the hood already being weakened due to the pre-existing damage, the damaged hood was susceptible to additional damage. The technician closed the hood with the same amount of force required on any other non-damaged hood which unfortunately resulted in expanding the existing damage. As a company, we close tens of thousands of hoods a day with no issue. The only variable between the other multitude of daily/weekly hood closings we perform and this vehicle is that the hood was already in a weakened state when we attempted to fasten it shut. It is our position that we are not at fault for exacerbating a preexisting issue during a routine motion like closing a hood. 

      With that considered, Safelite cannot take liability. Please refer to insurance for further assistance on this case. 

      Thank you,

      Complaint: 23238375

      I am rejecting this response because: The body shop that I took it to said the existing small dent would not have caused the dents the technician caused.  They only sent another installer out and not a qualified technician to assess the damage.  The technician that caused the damage did not even come to the door and tell me he caused it.  He just left it to me to find it.  I am not satisfied with the explanation Safelite gave.  The manager of the Ft. ****************** location said he would call back and discuss the situation. He never even had the ethics to call back.

      4/22/2025 I was on the phone with agents for 1-hour 15min., this morning trying to resolve an issue that has not been settled. My company is in the land scape business, and we have used Safelite for years to repair windows in our vehicles, as well as the occasional mishap of damage to vehicles in and around a worksite. As I always do, I called a Safelite shop and set up a repair on a vehicle that we'd damaged. The appointment was set, the quote was agreed on with no problem. I left my company card on file to be charged when the repair was completed. When I received the email informing me of the completed job, I open the receipt link to find that I was charged more than double the quoted amount. I called the repair shop who told me that the job "was never completed." It got worse from there. After the agent went back and forth with her supervisor, they concluded that the repair was completed, and the price changed because they charged me as "out of pocket" instead of a long-term customer. More Than Double...Really? My price went from $213 to $501. They ended the conversation by telling me that they'd get back to me after they investigated. the matter. What investigation, someone decided to cancel the first work order and minutes later, enter a new work order with a much higher price to get more money. I need the resolved as soon as possible PLEASE.

      Good Morning,

      Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I am one of the ************* agents that has been assigned to your case. I understand that the service was set up for glass replacement on a vehicle that was damaged due to a worksite mishap. Pro Cutters is the landscaping company, and the replacement service would be handled under the commercial account for Pro Cutters. The originally quoted price was around ******, but you ended up getting charged around ****** for the service, and under a different work order. I do apologize for this, and I am currently investigating what occurred with these work orders, and how best to further assist you. I will be continuing to work on, and monitor this case until a resolution is reached. I will be sure to pass along any updates we receive to you as well. Please let me know if there may be anything additional we can assist you with as well. Feel free to reply directly to this email, or give us a call in the ************* department at ************. Thank you and have a great day!

      On march 25th 2025, I took my car (Infiniti QX-50) to safelite to get my rear window replaced after it was busted out during a theft. The replacement glass they used is warped, impairing the function of the glass. They also caused damage to the interior plastic panel of the hatch, breaking the clips that hold it in place, leaving it unattached. About 1 week ago I filed a warranty claim as they say "This warranty covers defects in material or workmanship for as long as the customer owns or leases the vehicle. They also offer a guarantee on repairs and recalibrations. To initiate a warranty claim, customers must notify ********************** within 30 days of discovering the defect.". I filed a warranty claim and was told that Safelite could not source any more replacement glass. Today on 4/18/25 I went back to the store to explain what I found in the warranty and they still stand by the fact that they wont/cant replace the glass again. The warranty also says they will credit the cost of a new repair which they wont do either. They have offered to refund my original charge of $1297.24, and charge me again that number minus $300 (so a $300 refund basically). This is the profit they made and refuse to offer any further compensation. All I wanted was for them to replace my defective glass, but now I just want my money back. I would appreciate any assistance in the matter as it wasn't just a cheap repair, nor was it covered by insurance.

I requested & received confirmation to update our shop email on 4/11/2025. I then realized I was not receiving any dispatches assigned to our shop. I reached out mutliple times, finally got a response with the current listed email. Interesting our listed email was listed incorrectly, with a random letter in front of it. The verification email I originally received had the correct email. Its been 10 days of not receiving any dispatches. Ive emailed, updated info on the site without any success.

      On March 30, 2025, The rear gate window was damaged by accident. I was connected by **** to Safelite for replacement. The glass was replaced on Friday May 4, 2025. USAA Claim Number: 001597126-800. On Saturday April 12, It was noticed the outside trim on the left and right side of the rear glass was loose and not attached, it rattled when the auto was being driven. It also appeared the glass that was installed did not fit correctly. It was too late in the day to go to the Safelite shop that did the installation. I opted to park the auto in my garage and wait until Monday, April 14, 2025 to have the problem evaluated. On Sunday morning I went to use the auto and the rear glass was shattered. It had been in my locked garage and there was no eveidence of any impact. I made a warranty appointment with the Safelite shop that performed the installation for 2 PM Tuesday, April 15, 2025. At that appointment I was informed there would be know warranty coverage for improper installation or defective glass. There was no offer from the personnel at the Safelite shop to remedy the situation. Furthermore, it was suggested that I just go ahead and turn in another damage claim. The glass was replaced at THRU-WAY Autoglass on Friday, April 18, 2025. I was told there were several missing seal and trim clips. It was also brought to my attention the Left and Right outside trim had never been attached correctly during the Safelite installation. This was the likely cause for the glass failure.

      After 2 failed appointments (both because safelite informed us the day of that they did not have the correct glass for my windshield replacement), I was finally able to drop my car off on April 18th for a 9am appointment. My husband was going to pick it up on his way home from work that evening. Late that afternoon, safelite contacted me to say that they had removed the broken windshield, but did not have the new glass at the shop. My car would have to stay overnight but it would be ready at 8am Saturday morning. At 7:58am they called to say they still did not have the glass, but would install it as soon as it arrived. At 11:00am I tried contacting the shop to get an update. No one answered the phones for the next hour. I contacted the 800 number to try to get help and was informed that my appointment had been rescheduled for Monday morning. I spent the next several hours trying to get someone to tell me what I was supposed to do stranded for 3 additional days with 3 young children and no vehicle to safely transport them. I requested that a rental car be sent and was told only the shop could handle that. For hours no one from the 800 number or my insurance company could get the shop to answer the phone. Late this afternoon, I finally got through to someone, I was told the manager wasn't there but she would get back to me before the end of the day. I never heard back from her and I phoned several more times. I am now stranded at home over Easter weekend with no way to even get my children to their school activities Monday morning, or to pick up my vehicle anymore it is ready. Our family vehicle was only supposed to be in the shop a couple hours - not several days. Communication has been terrible from the shop and there has been zero accountability or effort to correct the issue.

      The Safelite technicians that came to my house failed to inform the windshield they removed from my car shattered. The shattered glass fell into the **** system of my car which caused over $2500 in damages. My home security cameras recorded the entire ordeal. I am requesting a full refund of the cost I had to pay to have the **** system for my vehicle repaired.

      Hello and Good afternoon!

      I am reaching out as I greatly apologize about this matter and the multiple appointments where the glass was not replaced. I am one of the agents assigned to your case and will be helping and providing assistance. I did call you today and we spoke briefly on the matter. It has been determined that the shop is working on securing the correct glass. They will reach out once they have the part and will make sure the correct glass is installed as well they are covering the $100 deductible advised by your complaint. To also make right on the complaint customer care will issue a $50 goodwill to the address and you will receive goodwill within 7-14 business days. If you have anymore questions or concerns we can be reached here or ************.

      Thanks,

      Devonta

      I have now gone to ******* in the Woodlands five times now with the same results which is nothing they have ordered the wrong windshield over five times and every single time I drive here its an hour drive so I have driven 10 hours and hundreds of miles and hours out of day For no resolve just today at 8:30 at my appointment after safelite ordered another windshield from *******, which took three weeks to get here. The tech told me its the wrong again. Something about the rearview mirror is a four prong on my windshield and they keep sending three prong regardless I called ************ and talked toa guy and he says theres no reason why this windshield shouldnt work that the tech doesnt really understand what hes talking about and at the same time Im in the safelite shop talking to the tech and hes telling me hes been doing this for 11 years and knows what hes talking about so I found myself in the middle of a safelite shop arguing with **** and a tech guy for Safelite about the right windshield and Im just trying to get it done at this point . Safelite has already said they would cover the hundred. Dollar deductible and they sent me a $50 check for compensation but that was after the third wrong windshield. This is now going on five and at some point I gotta stand up and say $50 is not gonna be enough for this I have another appointment at another Safelite in *****, *****, which is another hour away, where a master tech is gonna look at it tomorrow, but Im going on two months now since filing my claim with the giant crack across my windshield with no resolve the lady at the desk at Safelite in the *********-told me just to have **** do it .they dont know what to do .but Geico wont let me do that so now Im kinda in a bind where I cant get my windshield fixed

      Hello and Good afternoon!

       

      We greatly apologize about this, and that you have been having these issues. It has been determined that the shop due to the inconvenience are going to cover your deductible and customer care will offer a $50 goodwill which you did agree upon. With this there isn't much more that can be done regarding this matter. If you would like you can contact your insurance to change providers to another company. The $50 goodwill has been issued to you. We appreciate your understanding on the matter.

       

      Thanks so much!
