2006 Hyundai Sonata 3,000

A truck's wheel propelled some small rocks and hit the front of my car.

Now there is a very small chip in the center of the front windshield. Is there a way I (or a professional) can "correct" the small chip (hole) so that it looks as good as new?

Note...the chip is small, roundish, but, I hope it will "expand" overtime.

Thank you.

Probably have it fixed by now but follow the line to the tranny and there you will find the slave unit. On the slave is a bleeder.

jake,
Yup, call around to some glass companies and they should be able to hook you up. I've heard of some DIY stuff but none with the best results.

Suggested Repair

Have a glass company professionally repair the small windshield chip. DIY repair kits generally do not give the best results.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 2006 Hyundai Sonata reported a small round chip in the center of the windshield after rocks were thrown by a truck, and was concerned it might spread. One reply was unrelated to the windshield. Another expert recommended contacting glass companies for a professional repair rather than using DIY kits.
