A rock flies up from a vehicle in front of you and cracks your windshield. Almost everyone who has spent time driving knows that sound. Most of the time, you can just wince and carry on with your day. But, when damage is actually done, your first thought is likely “is there an insurance coverage that applies to windshields?” With Nationwide, your comprehensive or other than collision coverage may apply, depending upon the facts.
A damaged windshield doesn’t always need to be replaced. If your car’s windshield has minor damage, such as a chip or crack measuring less than 6 inches, it can probably be repaired.
When you use our Glass Service Program, the work can be done at a repair shop in our On Your Side Claims Service Network® or, where available, at your home, office or another location.
Safelite® Solutions is an optional third party that administers Nationwide's On Your Side Glass Service and will help arrange for windshield repair or replacement.

Also, work performed at an On Your Side® Auto Repair Center includes a guarantee on the workmanship of the appraised and completed repairs for as long as you own or lease your vehicle.
