Worried about paying a deductible when your windshield cracks? Many drivers hesitate to file an insurance claim because of out-of-pocket costs. The good news is, at Dixie Auto Glass, we help cover all or part of your deductible so you can get safe, professional repairs without financial stress.
Here is how our deductible assistance program works and why so many Ontario drivers trust us for their auto glass needs.
Why It Matters
According to Transport Canada, delaying windshield repair or replacement increases the risk of injury in a collision and can lead to more expensive damage. GlassBYTEs also reports that many drivers avoid repairs due to deductible costs—our program helps solve that problem.
Our deductible assistance makes it easier to act fast and protect your vehicle.
What is a Deductible?
Your deductible is the amount you agree to pay out of pocket when you file a claim. For example, if your deductible is $300 and the replacement costs $500, your insurer pays $200. Some policies include full glass coverage with no deductible, but many do not.
