Wow...
Wow...$250 to do the job.
Windshields are no longer there just to keep the wind out of your hair. The high technology composite glass, the rain detecting wiper feature and lane-keeping camera all make for a very expensive piece of glass that now has to be recalibrated when replaced.Last week I picked up a rock up in the upper left parrot of the glass where I didn’t notice it nail it ran down a foot or so. I called my insurance agent who set me up with Safelite. They did a great job on the glass but my camera is now out of wack and I had to turn off my lane keep. I made an appointment with our local stealership today for a recalibrate. They said 2.5 hours and $250 to do the job. Lucky I have insurance.

Safe-lite should have technicians that can calibrate. Any installer should.Last week I picked up a rock up in the upper left parrot of the glass where I didn’t notice it nail it ran down a foot or so.

Does tinting your front windshield affect any of this technology?Windshields are no longer there just to keep the wind out of your hair.

Hopefully the job is well done. If so you were comped for your trouble.So.....
After a call to my insurance agent followed by a call to our local Safelite office, the Safelite manager asked me to bring it in. They asked if they could attempt to calibrate the camera. While they didn’t have the ability to do this earlier in the week, magically they did have the ability today. After 45 minutes we were good to go. We have all the safety features working and neither Honda or Safelite charged me or my insurance for this alignment.
I’m still confused . . . . But, everything is done.
