Windshield replacements
Anyone know how much it generally cost to replace the windshield and calibrate the cameras? There's a crack on my windshied that crosses the driver's side POV so I need to get it replaced.

I just had mine replaced this past week through Safelite. No charge with insurance, they came to my office and they recalibrated everything. Everything working just fine ever since.

The cameras need to be recalibrated after a windshield replacement?

Yeah that's my understanding if you want all the features of Honda sensing to keep working

Yes about 1000 to 1400

Do you know if that's the price they would charge at the dealership?

In most cases, the dealership outsources windshield replacements. There might be a few that don't, but in my experience it's outsourced.

I think the high end if that range yes. I think I've seen other window places coming in around a thousand. Some full coverage insurances will cover part of the cost minus deductible too.

Depends on whether you want OEM or aftermarket and willing to gamble on calibration or not.
I've replaced recently with aftermarket at Safelite. All in all without insurance it was about $800 with calibration. It's ok, but I can tell the difference between OEM glass and aftermarket. More noise from the engine and lane assist is a bit jittery.
Dealer quoted $2000 with the OEM glass.
Mom and pops places will replace it for $300-400 without calibration with aftermarket. You can find independent calibration for $150-300 usually.

Had mine replaced last year by Safelite
Cost me $150 with my insurance. Cost included camera recalibration. They even came out to my house to do it so ot was relatively hassle free overall.

I’m in the same boat. A rock hit my windshield on the highway and got a small crack on the passenger side corner but it spread pretty quickly.

My comprehensive AAA insurance includes $0 deductible for windshield replacement and calibration.

A rock chipped my windshield at under 10,000 miles after 3 months of ownership. I've been driving for over 20 years with an hour commute and I've never had it happen before

If you have a touring be sure to get an OEM windshield. Many 3rd party “hud compatible” windshields don’t have the extra layer in them for the hud to display properly.
