Mendota windshield replacement Arizona and Florida
We're a mobile auto glass shop serving Arizona and Florida. Tell us you're insured with Mendota and we'll verify your coverage, handle the claim paperwork, and come to you — usually next-day.
Will Mendota charge you a deductible?
It depends on which state your policy was written in — the two states run completely different rules.
Arizona
If your policy includes optional zero-deductible full-glass coverage, your deductible is $0. Otherwise, your comprehensive deductible applies. A.R.S. § 20-264.
Florida
With qualifying comprehensive coverage, Florida waives the windshield deductible. Door, rear, quarter and sunroof glass use the policy's normal deductible. Fla. Stat. § 627.7288.

How to file with Mendota
- 1. Open the glass claim with Mendota.Most carriers take glass claims through their app, their website, or the claims number on your policy card — say "glass only" and it's usually the fastest lane they have.
- 2. Answer the basics.They'll ask for your policy number, the date the damage happened, and which glass is damaged — plus roughly where the break sits and how big it is.
- 3. Write down the number they give you. Some carriers issue a claim number directly; others route glass through an administrator and hand you a referral number instead. Either one is all we need — the notes below cover what to expect from Mendota.
- 4. Or skip all of it. Tell us it's a Mendotapolicy and we file the claim with you start to finish — that's included, not an add-on.
What to have ready
- Your claim number — if you already filed
- Your policy number — if you haven't
- Year, make, and model
- The VIN, if it's reachable — two same-trim cars can take different glass
- The ZIP code where the car will be parked

Vehicle makes serviced
Every windshield replacement comes with OEM-quality glass, a lifetime workmanship warranty for as long as you own the vehicle, and ADAS recalibration to factory spec when the vehicle needs it.
Mendota policies show up on both sides of our service map — Arizona and Florida — and the deductible answer is completely different in each one. Because these glass claims are typically handled by the carrier directly rather than routed through a third-party administrator, the path from cracked windshield to installed glass is short.
Mendota claims in Arizona
Arizona gives you three protections worth knowing before you file. Under A.R.S. § 20-264, every insurer selling comprehensive coverage in Arizona — Mendota included — must offer you a zero-deductible full safety-glass option. If you carry it, your windshield replacement is $0 out of pocket. Under A.R.S. § 20-263, an insurer may not raise your premium over an accident you did not cause — the normal treatment for glass damage from road debris. And under A.R.S. § 20-469, the choice of glass shop is yours — not your insurer's.
We serve the Valley and beyond: Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, Tempe, and every Arizona city we serve. Full detail on state coverage rules is on our Arizona insurance guide.
Mendota claims in Florida
Florida is the strongest windshield state in the country for drivers. Under Fla. Stat. § 627.7288, an auto policy with comprehensive coverage must replace your windshield with no deductible — so a Mendota comprehensive policy generally means $0 out of pocket on a windshield replacement. The statute covers windshield replacement specifically; door, quarter, rear, and sunroof glass follow your normal deductible.
We serve Tampa Bay, Orlando, Miami, West Palm Beach, Jacksonville, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and cities across Florida. The full statute breakdown is on our Florida windshield law page.
Where we come to you in Arizona and Florida
Mendota glass claims — common questions
Will Mendota give me a referral number for my glass claim?+
Usually not. On the Mendota glass claims we handle, the file typically stays with the carrier rather than being routed to a third-party glass administrator, so there is generally no separate referral or dispatch number issued. Your claim number is the number we need. If Mendota does give you an additional reference, keep it and pass it along, but do not delay the appointment searching for one that was never created.
Do I pay a deductible on a Mendota windshield replacement?+
It depends entirely on which state the policy was written in. In Florida, Florida law (Fla. Stat. 627.7288) requires insurers to waive the deductible for windshield replacement when the policy includes comprehensive coverage — windshield only, not door, quarter, rear or sunroof glass. In Arizona, Arizona law (A.R.S. 20-264) requires insurers to offer optional no-deductible safety-glass coverage, which is an option you must have elected; it is not automatic. Ask Mendota or your agent which applies to your policy before the appointment.
My Toyota has Safety Sense — does the windshield replacement include recalibration?+
Yes, when the vehicle requires it. Toyota Safety Sense, Honda Sensing, Hyundai SmartSense and the equivalent Chevrolet driver-assist systems use a forward-facing camera mounted to the windshield, and that camera is aimed through the glass. Replacing the glass means the aim must be re-established, so recalibration is part of the job rather than a separate add-on. We check the VIN and trim beforehand so the calibration is built into the appointment instead of discovered on arrival.
Do I file the Mendota claim myself?+
You don't have to. Tell us it's a Mendota policy when you book and we handle the claim paperwork and walk you through the filing — that's included, not an add-on. Have your policy number and the date the damage happened handy and we take it from there.
Will a glass claim raise my Mendota premium?+
Glass claims are filed under comprehensive coverage. Arizona law (A.R.S. § 20-263) restricts an insurer from increasing a premium as a result of an accident the insured did not cause or significantly contribute to. How a particular glass claim is treated depends on the facts, your policy, and Mendota's rating practices — ask Mendota directly if this is a concern.
