Volvo launches free puncture and windscreen chip repair service for every Volvo driver

[jamie307]

"Owners can take their car to any UK Volvo retailer, where the damage will be checked to determine whether a repair is safe and possible. In most instances, a repair can be made on the spot, while the customer waits, with no charge. If the damage is not repairable, the retailer will advise the customer and, if they wish."

Good news for us all.

Good news for us all.

Indeed, although it does exclude a large portion of the windscreen...

[Greggspies]

Isn't that because there are areas of the windscreen where a chip repair isn't legally allowed and the windscreen has to be replaced?

[JFDIT]

Yes, but I've had chip repairs in the area Volvo say they won't. It is a very large area! Indeed it probably wouldn't be inaccurate describe the area as the Windscreen!

Went in with mine as for a chip in screen, couldn’t do it whilst I wait but booked in for next Wednesday (fingers crossed the chip doesn’t crack between now and then)
