Call your Ins. Co. Here in Fl. they must replace cracked windshields without a deductible, due to the high interior pressures from the sun exposure as well as visibility impediment.
Had a rock bust my Suburban's W.S. My Insurer gave me the name of 3 glass cos. that would come to my location, make the repair and bill them.

If you have the Head Up Display request a HUD windshield. There's a difference.

They take care of every thing, just call them and give them your policy # and they will go to your house and fix it.
