Zico Auto Glass has replaced windshields across San Diego since 2012 . We are mobile-first — we drive to your home, your office, or the side of the road, and mobile service is free . Most jobs in the city are done the same day you call, seven days a week.
San Diego drivers crack more glass than most. Construction gravel on the 5, the 8, and the 15, sun exposure that turns a small chip into a running crack in an afternoon, and coastal temperature swings that stress glass already under load. A chip the size of a dime on Monday is often a twelve-inch crack by Friday. We would rather repair it cheap this week than replace it next week.

San Diego Auto Glass Questions
How fast can you replace a windshield in San Diego?
Most windshield replacements in the City of San Diego are completed the same day you call. We are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we come to your home, workplace, or roadside at no extra charge. A typical windshield replacement takes about 60 to 90 minutes on site, plus adhesive cure time before the vehicle is safe to drive.
Do you come to me, or do I have to drive to a shop?
We come to you. Zico Auto Glass is a mobile-first auto glass company serving all of San Diego County, and mobile service is free — there is no trip charge or travel fee. We can work in a driveway, an apartment complex parking lot, an office park, or on the shoulder if you are stuck. Our shop at 8250 Camino Santa Fe is available if you would rather bring the vehicle to us.
Will my insurance cover windshield replacement in California?
If you carry comprehensive coverage, windshield replacement is usually covered subject to your deductible. Some policies include full glass coverage with no deductible at all. We bill your insurance company directly and handle the claim paperwork for you, so you do not need to file it yourself. Call or text us with your insurance carrier and we will tell you what you are likely to owe before any work begins.
Does my car need ADAS calibration after a windshield replacement?
If your vehicle has lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, or a forward-facing camera mounted to the windshield, then yes — the camera must be recalibrated after the glass is replaced or those systems may not read the road correctly. Zico Auto Glass performs ADAS calibration in house , so your vehicle is not sent to a dealership or a third party and you are not waiting on someone else's schedule.
Can a chipped or cracked windshield be repaired instead of replaced?
Often, yes. Repair depends on the size of the damage, how deep it goes, and where it sits on the glass — damage directly in the driver's line of sight usually requires replacement even when it is small. Repair is faster and cheaper than replacement and is frequently covered by insurance with no deductible. Text us a photo of the damage and we will tell you which one you need before you commit to anything.
What does the lifetime warranty actually cover?
Every installation we perform carries a lifetime labor warranty covering our workmanship — leaks, wind noise, and installation defects. If something is wrong with how the glass was installed, we come back and make it right at no cost for as long as you own the vehicle. The warranty does not cover new damage from road debris, rocks, vandalism, or collisions, since that is fresh damage rather than a fault in the install.
Do you offer a military discount?
Yes. Zico Auto Glass offers a military discount for active duty service members and veterans. San Diego has one of the largest military populations in the country, and we work with service members across the county regularly. Mention it when you call or text and we will apply it to your quote.
