I stopped at a gas station and was approached by a blue uniformed man who say he would wash my windshield for free. being a dumb teenager I said sure, what’s the worst that could happen. I came out the gas station after my purchase to find that he had “found” a nasty chip in my windshield and and his coworker had found a chip in the other customers windshield. He said that he would fix it for free. THAT CRACK WAS NOT THERE BEFORE HE WASHED MY WINDSHIELD. Don’t trust strange men near your car.

This same thing happened to me yesterday in a small town on Mo. I stopped to make an in store purchase and when I came out, a man was waiting for me by my car. He knew I was the owner and proceeded to run his finger over the “supposed” crack he had “found”. First, I was at this point already upset that he had inspected my car without my permission and second, I was a bit creeped out that he already knew I was the owner. I know there was no crack in my windshield prior to arriving there. I had just washed my windshield that morning while getting gas at a different gas station. I would have noticed it then. Also, it didn’t appear to be a crack caused by a rock as he suggested. It had a sharp point in the middle of it. I refused his offer to repair it at no cost to me and informed him I had full glass replacement through my auto insurance co. He asked who my insurance company was and I regrettably told him. He said that was perfect because they could bill my insurance co and I wouldn’t pay anything. After a high pressure sale, I once again refused his services and told him I would call my ins co instead. He told me they would be there until Thursday if I changed my mind. I called the sheriff dept and reported the issue. I feel as though my car was vandalized by this individual and even if nothing comes of it, at least it’s been reported and hopefully investigated.
Hi Lora:
That is pretty creepy! He must sit there and watch people. He probably thought since you were a woman and alone you were an easy target. You did absolutely the right thing by not allowing him to repair the damage and calling the sheriff. I hope you were able to get the windshield fixed through your insurance without it costing you any money.
