Well after 3 days and 90 minutes on hold Mrs. State Farm calls me and say they will not because it is wear and tear. So I have a call in to her to see if they will even pay after I pay the deductible. (900 Jaguar windscreen). We will se what this ...... says when she gets back to me.
Meanwhile if the answer is no, does anybody no how to get ground in wiper streaks off of windshields. Thanks, Bud

Apparently you haven't learned, this is Florida, meaning I don't ask "my detail guy" "the store clerk" "the bank teller" etc. They know nothing. Simple fact of the matter is - SF is correct, HOW the windshield got that way is pretty much my real question as if the wipers were maintained it shouldn't happen.

So here's your fix, wait a month, throw a rock at the windshield, tell them it happened on 75 and it's replaced for free.
