ICBC Coverage for Windshield Chips
If you have comprehensive auto insurance through ICBC, windshield chip repairs are typically covered at no cost to you — no deductible applies. This is handled through the ICBC Glass Express program. No police report is needed for glass-only claims.
Repairing a chip early prevents it from spreading into a crack, which would require a full replacement and your deductible. Getting a chip fixed immediately saves you money.
