Safelite AutoGlass

Actual installation was excellent! Phone tree was terrible. No remote service available at my residence 28 miles away. No estimated completion time given causing me to travel home to work at 2pm. As it turned out work was completed in 2 hours which I would have waited for. I had to arrange my son and daughter to pick up the car later that day. So what would have been a fairly easy installation turned out a lot more expensive with transportation costs for 4 vehicles and the time an effort

I went online and scheduled an appointment. Upon reviewing my appointment online, I realized that my address had not formatted correctly, so I called the customer service number. After MANY calls, I finally got connected with someone in the Montgomery office. I’m not really sure why, but they in turn connected me to the Dothan office. A lady there named Ms Stacy told me she would take care of me and scheduled me an appointment for the following Friday. I live an hour and a half from Dothan and was headed to get my glass installed when someone from Montgomery called and said my glass didn’t come in. I explained to that person my service had been moved to Dothan, and for some reason said person in Montgomery deleted my entire work order (vs checking their system to see if it was found in the Dothan database). Needless to say, Dothan never got my glass and never called to tell me they didn’t (bc the order has been moved to Montgomery and then deleted). After another phone call with Ms Stacy in the Dothan office, she reassured me she had it all taken care of and to be there the next Friday. Before I arrived the following Friday, I decided it would be a good idea to call and check to make sure my glass was there. En route, because I had to leave my home before they opened, I called the Dothan office, and the person who answered, a man, had no record of my name or an appointment nor did they have any glass in stock to fulfill my order. I then asked him to check with Ms Stacy and/or the manager but Stacy was off and nobody there knew anything about my appointment. Further, no one from the Dothan office has called to follow up and right their wrong.

Worst experience with Safelite ever. My husband stopped in the Dothan store yesterday to get a stone chip fixed. They refused to confirm his insurance with State Farm in the store, and instead gave him a toll-free number to call. He talked to yet another Safelite representative, a conversation that took at least 15 minutes and included a sales pitch for add-on services - $140 for new wipers and his windshield treated with RainX. It doesn’t end there. My husband made an appointment for the repair this morning at our home. Safelite asked if we had a garage in case of bad weather. Yes we do. However, we have to move several items for his truck to fit in our garage and my husband has a broken back. The weather forecast was correct - sunny and dry weather this morning, so no problem. WRONG. The technician tells us THIS MORNING on his way here, that the repair HAS to be done in the shade, otherwise they won’t warranty the repair. So my husband had to meet the Technician at a different location. We are DONE with Safelite.

I am leaving a 2-star review based not on the initial repair issue, but on the experience that followed. A technician was dispatched to my home to repair a small crack in my windshield. Unfortunately, during the attempted repair, the windshield was further damaged to the extent that it required full replacement. While I understand that unintended outcomes can occur, what followed was extremely disappointing. The replacement process took nearly a month from the time the damage was reported. Communication throughout this period was unacceptable. Each time I attempted to call Safelite, I was caught in an automated phone system and unable to speak with a live representative. I ultimately had to contact my insurance provider just to get in touch with someone at Safelite. Although I recognize that ordering the glass and obtaining insurance approval takes time, I was never contacted when the windshield arrived at the local shop. Once again, I had to go through my insurance company to find out it had arrived and to finally schedule the replacement. This level of service and lack of communication is deeply frustrating and unprofessional. I expect more timely updates, accessible customer support, and a streamlined process—especially after the initial complication.

Safelite Glass in Dothan Al did a great job replacing our windshield . It was done in just a matter of three days from time I contacted them to my appt time . I had to take it into the shop due to my vehicle was a pathfinder and all the safety features had to be reset and the machine to do that was at the shop but the windshield I had replaced in my 2022 dodge ram a few months ago was done at my home and they could reset the features on it . Very pleased with their technician and quality of work!

Safelite has always been my go to windshield repair/replacement, I never had a problem until recently went in to the Dothan shop for a windshield replacement on my 2021 Jeep Wrangler. Everything went fine and I left assuming everything was fine. I was heading to Florida for a meeting in a location where I needed my toll road/bridge toll transponder. Looked up to where it had been on my old windshield and it wasn't there!! The most frustrating issue was that I couldn't call the Dothan Facility direct. When you call it goes through their national phone system, I was on hold waiting for someone to answer for almost 10 minutes, and then when they answered and I told them the problem, I wasn't put through to Dothan the national employee talked to them and relayed the info. I was then told that they had it, so I turned around and drove back to the facility. Upon arriving I told them what I was there for but they told me they didn't have it and I told them it was on the windshield when I brought it in. Since I didn't have a picture of it on the windshield I couldn't do anything. LESSON: Take pictures of your car before you hand over your keys! No pictures then it's your word against there's!!!
