My car windscreen was chipped a few weeks ago, presumably by a rock, in the bottom centre. Two cracks, each about 20cm long are slowly growing toward the upper corners off the screen, not yet in front of driver or passenger. 10yo XTrail, no fancy cameras or sensors.
I've got excess-free windscreen cover in my car insurance.
What I don't know is whether a claim on the windscreen cover will affect my rating, and whether it will be a declarable in future quotes for insurance (ie have you made any claims in the last xx years). I looked through my policy, but it doesn't answer any of this. I have an enviable accident-free record that I'd prefer to retain, and keep my premiums as low as possible.
Does anyone have experience claiming windscreen, how it affected their rating and premiums, and whether it is a declarable for future quotes/policies?
Call up insurance and ask.
