Hello everyone,

Thank you for welcoming me to this forum. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Laura, and I come from Gernmany. I'm looking for advice on repairing the windshield of my JK. I recently noticed a small crack on it, and when I did some online research, I came across a windshield repair product from the brand NoLeaky, available on a small classifieds website (removed link). I would like to know if anyone among you has used this product before, and if so, what do you think of it? Could you please share your opinions or experiences with its usage before I make a purchase?

Best regards.

Hi and welcome to the forum. Best way to fix a crack is to replace the windshield. In US/Canada the glass is almost criminally cheap to replace (is in Canada at $205 installed) and if one stays away from the crap with the Jeep symbol on it - price doubles for that.

I guess they have rocks in Germany too? Owning a rolling box means our window will get a lot of rock hits... I drive with the cracks as long as possible, because when I put a new windsheild in- it gets hit in a day or two! Rocks seek to avoid hitting windsheilds that are already broken..lol!

I have the local glass shop on speed dial. My 2013 JKU has had 3 windshield replacements, all from driving on the highway, that flat slab of a windshield just collects rocks!

I have a very strong hunch it's spam, but I left it last night and removed the link. Got the benefit of the doubt from me this one time.

Resharp I'm a little slow, are you thinking (with your experience here on the forum) that this post was for the purpose of generating comments pertaining to a windshield repair product? and that the post itself was posted by someone who might be connected with this product?

I've seen a lot and I have keen eyes and nose. Most of the time I am 99.9% sure and just address it. There is the slightest sliver of doubt here so I'll just bide some time. Anytime it's someone's first post and they are linking you to an external product, it stinks. Sorry. Even the question and content are questionable IMO, and believe me, I factor in international communication barriers. Not to be an A-hole, but if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it's typically a duck. I am more to extend an apology to the OP when and if time and future content prove me wrong.
