4. Subcontractors

Walnut Creek Auto Glass may use licensed and insured subcontractors to fulfill service requests. When subcontractors are used:

• All subcontractors are vetted, licensed, and insured to perform auto glass work in California
• All work is performed to the same quality and safety standards we apply to our own technicians

5. Workmanship Warranty

How to Make a Warranty Claim

To submit a warranty claim:

1. Notify us within 30 days of discovering the defect by calling (925) 357-4055 or emailing [email protected]
2. Provide your original service receipt or job number
3. We will inspect the vehicle at no charge to assess the warranty claim
4. If the defect is covered, we will remedy the issue at no cost to you

We are not responsible for any damage that results from a delay of more than 30 days in notifying us of a defect.

Glass Warranty

Our workmanship warranty covers installation quality only. The glass itself is covered solely by the manufacturer's warranty, which varies by glass brand. We will assist you in pursuing a manufacturer warranty claim if a glass defect is identified, but we are not responsible for defects in the glass material itself.

ADAS Calibration Warranty

When we perform ADAS calibration, our work is warranted for 30 days after the calibration date, or until the next calibration event, whichever comes first. A calibration event includes any vehicle collision, subsequent windshield replacement, camera removal, or vehicle realignment.

If warning lights related to our calibration return within 30 days of our service, we will perform a re-calibration at no charge, subject to inspection confirming no new calibration event has occurred.

6. Exclusions & Limitations

Our workmanship warranty does not cover:

• New chips, cracks, or breakage caused after installation
• Damage resulting from accidents, vandalism, or road debris
• Pre-existing rust, corrosion, or body damage discovered during installation
• Damage caused by improper use, modifications, or unauthorized repairs
• Normal wear and tear
• Damage caused by extreme weather events
• Any damage to vehicle components not directly related to our glass installation

IN NO EVENT SHALL WALNUT CREEK AUTO GLASS BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF YOUR GLASS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE OF YOUR VEHICLE, LOST WAGES, OR RENTAL COSTS.

7. ADAS Calibration

If your vehicle is equipped with a windshield-mounted camera for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), recalibration may be required after windshield replacement. By proceeding with a windshield replacement on an ADAS-equipped vehicle without requesting calibration, you acknowledge and accept the following:

• Your vehicle manufacturer may require recalibration after any windshield replacement
• ADAS features including lane keeping assist, collision warning, and adaptive cruise control may not function correctly without calibration
• Walnut Creek Auto Glass is not responsible for ADAS system failures on non-calibrated vehicles where calibration was offered and declined
• You remain responsible for the safe operation of your vehicle at all times, regardless of ADAS system status

We will always inform you whether your vehicle requires calibration and provide you with both calibrated and non-calibrated pricing options. The choice is yours.

8. Insurance Claims

Walnut Creek Auto Glass will assist you in filing auto glass insurance claims with your carrier. By requesting our insurance claim assistance, you authorize us to:

• Contact your insurance carrier on your behalf
• Submit claim documentation, invoices, and photos required for claim processing
• Receive payment directly from your insurance carrier for covered services

You are responsible for any applicable deductible and for any services not covered by your policy. We make no guarantee that your insurance claim will be approved. Insurance coverage determinations are made solely by your insurer.

You represent that all information you provide in connection with an insurance claim is true and accurate. Providing false information for the purpose of obtaining insurance benefits is insurance fraud under California law.

9. Pricing & Payment

All prices quoted are estimates based on the information you provide. Final pricing may vary based on physical inspection of your vehicle, actual glass required, and any pre-existing conditions discovered during the service.

Payment is due upon completion of service unless prior arrangements have been made. We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, and cash. For insurance-covered jobs, payment is coordinated directly with your insurer.

Quoted prices are valid for 30 days from the date of the quote. Prices are subject to change without notice.
