Does a Tesla warranty cover the windshield?

I just bought a brand new Tesla. I was driving the other day when I noticed a giant crack in the windshield. No debris hit my car as far as I know, so I’m at a loss. Will the Tesla warranty cover my windshield?

Eric Schad · Updated on Aug 11, 2022

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.

Unfortunately, the Tesla warranty will probably not cover your windshield. Unless you can prove that the damage was from a manufacturer’s defect in the windshield, Tesla will chalk this up to wear and tear.

Replacing a Tesla windshield costs between $1,000 and $2,000, which is far more expensive than a windshield replacement for any other car, so get ready to pinch your pennies.
