$2,200 HONDA WINDSHIELD CRACK – 2 WEEK BackOrder, REPAIR and CALIBRATION !!!

So a my 2018 had a rock hit the edge of the windshield. Over night the crack grew from one inch to across my windshield to the passenger side. That small crack cost about 2 weeks of driving another car due to a nationwide backorder in Honda windshields and about a total of $2,200 to repair!

Apparently with Honda Sensing and other car safety assist systems with radar and cameras mounted behind the windshield, it requires original Honda glass and Honda dealer calibration after the new glass install. Some glass installers are able to calibrate the camera to new glass but they needed the programming and patterns. According to my auto glass installer and my Honda dealer, the windshield was back-ordered nationwide for Honda Clarity and Accords. I had to drive my other car for about 2 weeks for the parts to arrive. /

Both qoute replacement costs to be about $1500-1700 for the glass and materials, $250 for install, and $250+ for calibration… WOW so its about $2,200 for a new windshield! That was one expensive windshield. I removed my dash cam system and made a quick DIY on how to remove dash came mount ( https://youtu.be/TkvI8Zla6Us ) .

Many new cars have these camera and radar systems installed for safety systems. With this in mind, I hope glass specific to these safety camera systems come down in price in production and installation costs. Imagine a budget Civic or Corollla having to pay a hefty $2000 windshield repair bill…. YIKES!

Trying out 3 Steering Wheel Covers on my Honda! Review ($15-$20)

Steering Wheel Cover Review ($15-$20) – I bought 3 steering wheel covers for my 2018 Honda Clarity and Accord in different styles ( https://amzn.to/2EyDJ7Q ) to try out. Of all my Honda’s I found that the Clarity’s steering wheel was harder and colder during my morning drives. I was wearing gloves to void touching the cold steering wheel. So I decided to go shopping for a good steering wheel cover that was soft and insulated me from the cold. My Youtube vlogs may also have associated affiliate links to products that may earn from qualifying purchases.

I first bought a $12 Walmart Auto Drive Steering wheel cover for 14-15 inch steering, however while it looked good, it was too big for my Honda steering wheel. It had extras space on the sides of the wheel and was not snug.
The other two universal 15 inche wheel covers were off of Amazon. SEG Direct microfiber leather steering wheel cover ( https://amzn.to/2EzN3sc ) which was very popular $16 with a lot of reviews and a textured surface. SHIAWASENA Steering wheel cover $16
( https://amzn.to/2XsIEP6 ) which had a smooth surface and patterned with red stitching.

Both of these steering wheel covers did not feel like real leather, even though the description said “genuine leather” . Both installation of these covers were a little more difficult than the one purchased at Walmart. Tight fitting and no slip, they did not have any gap after the install. The only gripe is the packaging crease on the covers. With the bend shipping, the creases showed on the material. More so on the SEG brand with multiple bends in packaging. For my 2018 Honda Clarity, both 15 inch covers fit perfectly. Only time will tell whether the material will be durable in the sun and car heat. I kept the SHIAWASENA one on my Clarity and may return the SEG cover as I wanted a smooth feel.
