Hello all, My 2024 Flash uses Acoustic glass for the doors. The drivers door glass took a hit from what I assume was a small rock on the highway recently. The crack quickly spread down the entire glass panel. My local dealership has quoted me $470.00 for the glass and $270.00 to Install it. It is just me or is $745.00 a bit high for this. Does anyone have any experiences with having the door glass replaced? Does anyone have a specific Part number for the acoustic glass? Thanks

Of course the dealership is high. See what Safelite charges. I believe this is the part, ML3Z-1521411-B , which you can get for under $300, assuming it's available (appears to be iffy). Installing it involves removing the door panel, undoing the glass, etc.

At my old dealer we charged 1.5 hours labor to replace the glass, or the regulator. See what your locals charge per hour. Part cost seems about right from a dealer.

I recently had to replace the drivers side window on my 24 Flash due to an impact. Cost me $250.00 via my AAA insurance with the work done by Safelite. Took them about 15 minutes.

Called $tealer$hip for a reason! Check out your local independent garage or glass shop. They can get OE parts as well or comparable AF parts.

Not all dealers are alike, they are ALL independent shops, none being Ford owned. Some dealers like the one I worked for, would bend over backwards for customers in every way possible and competitive with market priced parts and labor.

The few bad ones out there give them all a bad name, blanket statements notwithstanding.

^This is absolutely the best way to go if possible.
