E 350 2006- Iridium Silver with charcoal interior,premium package
Cracked Windshield
i am really bummed today as a rock chip put a 10 inch crack in my new car -E 350 2006- it has extended to 15 inches in 4 hrs
i called dealer in san diego who told me to call an autoglass company directly and arrange repair at home or at their site
does any one know whether the mobile services are the way to go or are there dealers who do it on their site
besides hoe do i assure that it is factory replacement glass and is there anything special that needs to be done wrt the rain sensors etc
please advise
i am having a terrible day after this
thanks

If you called MBSD, they'll just refer you to Elite Auto Glass in Kearny Mesa. I had mine replaced at MB Escondido for $600. Ask for Larry Hastings.
