Should you smell adhesives after windshield replacement? | Chip Happens Auto Glass

Hey folks! This is Patrick from Chip Happens Auto Glass.

Welcome to another Q&A session where I answer questions from y'all on the internet.

Today's question is:

"Should you smell adhesives after windshield replacement? | Chip Happens Auto Glass"

Answer

Yes, that’s definitely a myth. Teslas do not have 40-plus windshield versions. In reality, there are roughly 10 to 12 different windshield versions across Tesla models. Typically, each model has one or two variations depending on features or production changes.

This misconception likely comes from how advanced Tesla glass systems are, but the number of variations is far more manageable than people think. Understanding this helps clear up confusion about availability, cost, and replacement timelines.

Summary

Patrick debunks the myth, explaining that Teslas have about 10–12 windshield versions, not 40+.
