Fiat Windshield Replacement & Auto Glass Repair

About Fiat Windshield Replacement & Auto Glass Repair

Fiat, the Italian automobile manufacturing company, has returned to the U.S. market after a gap of 27 years and is geared up to succeed in this second run. The company hopes to sell around 50,000 cars by end of year as a result of its new found partnership with the American brand Chrysler. The upscale brand of Fiat, the Alfa-Romeo, is one of the models that will return to this country following the alliance of the two car makers. Analysts expect that the new Fiat 500 Coupe, which is being spotlighted as the main offering from this brand, will be a significantly improved version of this company’s previous models that debuted in U.S. markets earlier.

This car won the World Car of the Year award in 2010. With the brand all set to take the American market by storm, a number of auto glass service providers are also gearing up to offer windshield replacement and auto glass repair for Fiats. Make sure you compare prices offered by the various providers before you entrust your Fiat to any of them for auto glass repairs.

Auto glass replacement costs are generally higher when it comes to your Fiat. To get an idea of costs compare a Fiat Punto with a similar model car from other brands. On an average you will find that a Mini Cooper or a Renault will cost you about the same as your Fiat when you need to have the auto glass replaced. Remember that in most brands the rear glass costs more than the front ones. This difference needs to be taken into account when you are comparing Fiat auto glass replacement costs offered by different service providers. Always mention your exact requirements, and the year, make, and model of the vehicle when requesting quotes.

An important point to remember is that different Fiat models come with widely varying car glass needs. For example, the aerodynamically contoured, drop- shaped new Fiat Croma has rear quarter glass, rear door glass, front glass, windshield, and a back glass making a total of 8 auto glass parts for this model. The compact, stylish Fiat 500C only needs 5 glass parts: the front two door windows, two rear quarter glass, and a front windshield. Some Fiat models like the Qubo come with very distinctively contoured auto glass panes especially for the rear door and rear quarters. Only an experienced auto glass technician will be able to assess the exact requirements of your Fiat and find the materials and glass that will fit these cars perfectly.

Choosing expert technicians to handle your Fiat windshield replacement and auto glass repair is very important in another way too. Some Fiat models come with distinctive fittings that need to be carefully maneuvered when the glass is being detached for auto glass repair or replacement. For example, the A pillars are prone to breakage in some of these cars. A technician who has worked with several Fiat models in the past will know these vulnerabilities and take care accordingly so that the glass removal takes place without unnecessary damage to such parts. This keeps your Fiat windshield replacement and auto glass repair costs low.

Fiat Auto Glass Parts

It is also important to choose only the best possible parts for your Fiat windshield replacement and auto glass repair needs to get the best value for money. Cheap glass and parts often fail to do an effective job of keeping the wind and rain out of your car’s interior. In fact, using cheap glass may actually prove to be very dangerous especially if your car sustains an impact of any sort. While OEM glass is designed to withstand reasonable impact, cheap glass will break immediately. In an accident, you and your passengers could sustain very serious injuries from such damage to the glass. Avoid compromising your safety by insisting that only OEM or OEM equivalent glass and parts be used for all your Fiat windshield replacement and auto glass repair.
