Every class A owner knows there will come a day when the windshield needs replaced. We got a couple of minor dings in our travels, but on the way from Jacksonville, Florida, to Quartzsite, Arizona, we got a small ding that quickly turned into a crack.
Like any vehicle, it’s unsafe to travel with cracks in the windshield. Lucky for us, there was a mobile windshield replacement service in Quartzsite. Nomad Glass was making a round in our campground and Mike was able to speak to them about our windshield. They contacted the insurance company, ordered the windshield after approval, and set up an appointment to replace the glass around Mike’s work schedule–and they came to us. Since Florida is our place of residence, there was no insurance deductible, so the windshield replacement was no cost.
I was inside the motorhome while Mike watched and filmed the process from outside. It was quite weird seeing men outside the vast window, but it was interesting to see how the replacement was done. They were quick and efficient and didn’t mind being filmed or having photos taken.
We were very happy with the work from Nomad Glass. They handled everything from insurance to installation. Their customer service was prompt, they were willing to work around our schedule, and they came to our campsite. They also replaced the cracked windshield on Mike’s pickup at the same time.

Similar to living in a sticks and brick home, there is always something needing maintenance, upkeep, or preventative measures. It’s nice when a company has the integrity and customer service to make the process a little easier.

The windshield in Waldo has been replaced twice. Glad you found professional people to make the process easy for you!
They were a great company to work with–it always seems to be hit or miss, but they did a good job.
That was painless for your readers and most interesting.
It was weird to see one of our ‘walls’ just disappear for a little while.
I hadn’t thought of it like that, although you alluded to it.
We had to have ours replaced recently too. We took it to their shop but it was just close by. I’m sure the one on our car was much easier to install. Glad it worked out so well for you.
It’s one of those things we knew to expect eventually, I’m just glad it was so easily fixed. Sorry yours needed replaced.
Quite the process. I have probably mentioned before, but if you are ever in Kerrville, Tx and need RV repairs, LeMeilleur Truck and RV repair shop is the BEST.
I’ll definitely keep them in my notes. It always helps to get a good review from a trusted source. Too many repair shops nowadays are trial and error.
I wonder how much that windshield weighs. I’m glad the replacement process went smoothly.
I’m not sure how much it weighs, but it did surprise me how easily it cracked in the process of taking it out.
Glad it worked out well for you guys. So convenient that they could come to your coach. So far we never had to replace ours. We had a chip where they could stabilize the damaged spot. It seems to hold up fine. Crossing my fingers.
It was a relatively painless process, thankfully. We’re hoping it will be a while before it needs done again.
We just had a replacement done. It started as a chip repair and it ran while the repair was being done. Had to drive from NM to CA with the crack. Tiffin windshield system is a gasket not adhesive. Total time on the job was 45 minutes with two men. Their truck had a platform that conformed to the front of our coach and they were able to adjust the height right to the bottom of the window.
