Tesla Called Us for Help

When Tesla was establishing its service presence in the Phoenix Valley, one of its early service locations operated near Deer Valley Airpark. At the time, a Tesla service manager found Blue Chip Auto Glass through Yelp and contacted us for assistance replacing windshields on first-generation Model S vehicles experiencing known warranty-related cracking issues. Tesla supplied the replacement glass, and our technicians performed the installations. That early experience helped establish our long-standing work with Tesla vehicles. We continue replacing Model S glass today and also assist other Arizona glass shops with Tesla-related projects.

Good to know

Model S windshields have changed over the years

The Model S came out in 2012, making it one of Tesla's longest-running lines. Tesla has updated its exterior design, driver assistance technology and windshield-related parts along the way, so an early Model S and a newer one can look alike but use different glass and camera configurations.

Before ordering, we verify your VIN and equipment to identify the correct windshield. That keeps us from ordering incompatible parts and lets us prepare for the installation.

  • Earlier Model S cars

    Earlier Model S cars can have different windshield configurations depending on production year and equipment. Some were built before the camera systems used on later Autopilot cars; others have earlier generations of Tesla's driver assistance hardware. It's important to identify the correct glass for that exact configuration.

  • Newer Model S cars

    Newer Model S cars have updated camera systems and other design changes, so the windshield and mounting parts can differ from earlier cars.

Your glass options

Model S windshield options: OEM vs. aftermarket

One of the first decisions Model S owners face is OEM Tesla glass or an aftermarket windshield. What's available depends on your car's year and configuration.

OEM Tesla Model S Glass

For Tesla Model S owners who prefer to maintain genuine factory components, OEM Tesla windshields offer the confidence and peace of mind that come with choosing original equipment. These windshields are sourced through Tesla's parts network and are designed for the specific vehicle configurations they support.

Genuine Tesla glass remains an excellent option for restoring your Model S as closely as possible to its original factory condition. At Blue Chip Auto Glass, we can source OEM windshields directly from Tesla, with pricing and availability varying by model year and windshield configuration.

Aftermarket Tesla Model S Glass

Aftermarket windshield quality has advanced considerably, giving many Tesla owners an attractive alternative to genuine OEM glass. Manufacturers such as FYG (Fuyao Glass) have invested in improved production processes and precision tooling, resulting in products that can closely compare with OEM windshields in appearance, fit, and performance.

At Blue Chip Auto Glass, we've worked extensively with both OEM and aftermarket Tesla glass. When a compatible, high-quality aftermarket windshield is available for your Model S, it can offer excellent value at a lower cost than genuine Tesla glass.

Because windshield designs and camera configurations have changed throughout the Model S's production history, our team carefully verifies compatibility before recommending or ordering replacement glass.

Which glass should you choose?

Both genuine Tesla glass and quality aftermarket windshields can be excellent options for your Model S. The best choice depends on your vehicle's model year, available glass options, personal preferences, insurance coverage, and budget.

Our team will explain the differences and help you select a windshield that meets your needs. Whether you choose OEM or aftermarket glass, Blue Chip Auto Glass follows the appropriate installation procedures and applicable Tesla camera calibration requirements.

How we do it

Tesla Model S windshield replacement process

Replacing a Model S windshield means careful handling of the surrounding trim, the mounting surfaces and any camera parts your car has. The exact procedure depends on its year and configuration.

We follow the applicable installation procedures and inspect the replacement glass before scheduling you. Our Tesla process page explains how we replace Tesla windshields, from preparing the car to the final inspection.

Cameras

Tesla Model S camera recalibration

Depending on the year and equipment, your Model S may have forward-facing cameras for Tesla's driver assistance features, and replacing the windshield may require the applicable calibration.

Because Tesla has used different camera hardware over the years, calibration requirements aren't identical across every Model S. We review the requirements for your car and perform the applicable calibration.

Beat the Arizona sun

Windshield pre-tinting for your Model S

Arizona sun makes windshield tint appealing for Model S owners. We offer pre-tinting so the film is applied to the replacement windshield before it's installed.

Tell us when you request your quote and we'll go over the options. All tinting is subject to Arizona regulations.

Insurance

Does insurance cover Tesla Model S windshield replacement?

Windshield damage from road debris or another qualifying event may be covered under the comprehensive part of your policy. Coverage depends on your policy terms, deductible and the circumstances, and some policies have rules about OEM glass and calibration.

We help coordinate eligible claims and identify the correct windshield, or give you a cash quote to compare against your deductible. Once the correct glass has arrived and passed inspection, we call you to schedule.

Insured with Tesla Insurance? Just give us your Tesla claim number. We work directly with your adjuster and bill Tesla Insurance, so you don't pay up front and wait for reimbursement.
