Services Locations We're hiring My appointment Get quote + schedule Global glass shortages are impacting appointment availability 06-18-2021 Glass manufacturers were forced to slow down or stop production as COVID-19 hit in early 2020, and getting back to full capacity as the crisis comes to an end is taking time. On top of factory closures, the vaccine rollout has required massive amounts of glass to produce the glass vials used for storing the vaccine. And that’s just one of many factors causing the global glass shortage. There’s good news, though! Our strong glass supplier relationships give us access to the best inventory available. We lead the industry in our ability to source your part. Experts predict that the shortage will begin to ease up later this year. So what does this mean for you? There could be delays in getting the part for your vehicle. Go ahead and schedule your service appointment. If we find that your part won’t arrive on time, a specialist will reach out in advance to help you reschedule. Throughout the journey, we’ll keep you informed. We appreciate your business and your patience. Back to press releases Learn more Safelite Foundation Press releases Our leaders Partnerships Our companies Don't wait, schedule your appointment today!
