That's a really useful comment. I am going to talk to an auto glass specialist tomorrow and may have a better instinct then. My gut response is to go with Tesla but that could be expensive - and ironically they may well use Autoglass anyway!Autoglass will repair it, when I had them replace my windscreen the fitter had done several rear glass on Tesla's previously. He was clearly pretty knowledgeable about Model 3 in general IMHO.
I'm pretty sure he also said that they sometimes get called to Tesla to do replacements for customers that book there.
Useful stat. ThanksLooking on the Autoglass website it looks like they don't repair rear windows Book Autoglass® appointment
Also states that in the last 6 months we have completed 887 TESLA 3 glass replacements
Long shot but your car isn't an August 2019 model is it? Quite a few of us had the cracked rear screen issues resultant from a bad batch where the heating element was faulty. Warranty job with Tesla replacing the full rear screen. You may well have dinged it but thought I'd check as it may save you a few bob. Maybe not even the rear screen but worth knowingMy insurance tell me they require Autoglass to repair a crack in the rear window of my Model 3. Anybody experience of Autoglass and repair of Tesla Model 3 repair?
Yes it is a August 2019 model! Is there evidence I can refer to, to demonstrate this to Tesla? It's booked in for the 22nd of December.Long shot but your car isn't an August 2019 model is it?

Where does the break start? The issue was with cracks that would appear within the glass and starting at a joint of the rear heater (which would be shorted at that point and not heat any further).Yes it is a August 2019 model!

Ah, glad I posted! So if you look at the crack it should (hopefully) be contained within the glass, you shouldn't feel anything on the surface. Mine propagated a couple of inches from one of the lower elements. The key is that it doesn't break the surface - that way they'll struggle to claim it was impact damage. You could also reference these forums.Yes it is a August 2019 model! Is there evidence I can refer to, to demonstrate this to Tesla? It's booked in for the 22nd of December.

Good luck with it.
I've never heard of glass repair or replacement increasing insurance premiums. Is there some other reason I'm missing?I cracked mine. I got tesla to replace it. It cost around £600 to £800 from memory. Didnt want it on my insurance.
