Dumpy Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 The 2011 Edge's Specs and Options show that the Limited and Sport models comes with "Break Resistant Glass." Alberta uses gravel instead of salt so there are a lot of cracked windshields. I was wondering how the stronger glass is holding up? Overall, should I be getting windshield coverage through insurance??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choff1138 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 The 2011 Edge's Specs and Options show that the Limited and Sport models comes with "Break Resistant Glass." Alberta uses gravel instead of salt so there are a lot of cracked windshields. I was wondering how the stronger glass is holding up? Overall, should I be getting windshield coverage through insurance??? my 2cents is that windshield insurance is always worth it. In AK it only raises my rates by about a buck or two every 6 months and I get a new windshield whenever I want. I am going on month 5 with my limited and I have maybe 2 small chips in my windshield already. We don't use salt here either. Downtown they use some salt compound spray solution, but not as corrosive as salt. On the rest of the roads it is sand. So far, nothing as bad as our truck gets dinged, but I think that is mostly due to the angle of the glass then the type. Hope that helps.

ThinLine Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Windshields are laminated glass. The break resistant glass refers to the windows and BAMR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
