I broke my damn windshield 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 I'm still haven't come to accept it yet. It feels like I totaled it and it's 100% my fault. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
My first pic of the truck with about 3 inch lift and 2ish tire gain. I've got a new off-road bumper, headlights and grill. I kind of like the front bumper now that its higher of the ground
Any front windshield thoughts or experiences you would like to share ?

I chipped my windshield traveling for Easter in 2025 and was fricking mad also.
Fortunately my tiny chip was "epoxy" repairable and guaranteed for life.
I did find out from the glass repair technician that if they're replacing a whole windshield and the insurance company will only pay for a generic windshield, they will upgrade to an exact OEM Mopar windshield for ~$125 out of pocket..good to know.
If feel your pain..😡😡😡

Thank you for the info. I was getting ready for some winter fun by replacing wiper blades. I had them up with the wipers off when I reached across to clean the window and somehow I fit the arm and it went down extremely forceful because its spring loaded. In my 56 years of life I never had a mistake like that before and I've changed thousands of them. It really hits a nerve in me when I'm trying to improve the truck and go backwards 🤬 🤬 🤬

That would be "repairable" if you wanted to go that route. Most insurance compycover chip repair for free. Otherwise, I'd make sure to ask for OEM glass.

I did that once on accident on an old Ford I had. Pissed me off and totally my own fault.

I had a stone truck drive by from the opposite direction and one of the rocks crack my windshield. Too late to turn around and be able to get his insurance on the hook for it instead of mine paying for it. This was on my 2025 with less than 3000 miles at the time. The silver lining... if that counts as my first scratch/dent... ill take it. 100% coverage...no deductible and no evidence of anything happening...unlike the scratches or dents we don't take care of.
Sorry to hear of your misfortune.

Its 2 separate smashes so it maybe a little more than originally shown

The spring has some pretty good pressure behind it and took very little effort to get past the no return spot.

I feel your pain. Oh let me fix this or that and then it backfires on bites you in the Azz.
 
Drove around town and a little trip to visit family. Love playing in the snow but I will never buy a limited again. The air suspension in packed snow or anything that’s not pavement sucks A**!!!
 
Late to report. 20 days at dealer. Brake vacuum replacement. Steering rack and pinions mounting bolts. Other minor issues and a recalled. Some cover under warranty/tsb. Vacuum pump under extended warranty with a $200 deductable. Cost acceptable. Time was way too long.
