How Much Does RV Windshield Replacement Cost?
RV windshield replacement costs between $400 and $3,000 per panel installed. Class C motorhomes and camper vans on standard chassis run $400–$1,200. Class A motorhomes with flat two-piece glass run $900–$2,000 per side, and curved two-piece Class A glass runs $1,500–$3,000 per side — meaning a full Class A set commonly totals $3,000–$5,000. Chip and small crack repair costs $75–$200.

What actually drives the price
Four factors explain nearly all of the spread between a $450 job and a $3,200 one.
- Glass size and curvature — curved laminates are molded per coach shell in low volume
- Availability — discontinued molds cost more and take weeks to source
- Labor crew size — large panels need two or three installers and suction handling gear
- Extras — heated glass, acoustic laminate, and ADAS camera recalibration each add cost
What insurance typically pays
Comprehensive RV coverage almost always includes glass. Many carriers waive the deductible for repair while applying it to replacement, and several states mandate zero-deductible glass coverage on comprehensive policies.
In practice, that means a chip repair is frequently free to the owner and a full Class A replacement often costs you only the deductible. Get a claim number before scheduling and use a shop that bills the carrier directly.
How to lower the cost
Several choices meaningfully change the final number.
- Repair chips within days — a repaired chip is $75–$200 versus thousands once it spreads
- Get three quotes; specialist pricing on the same panel varies widely by region
- Ask about new-old-stock or cross-referenced molds for older coaches
- Replace only the damaged panel unless both show stress cracking
- File the claim — glass rarely counts against RV policy rates the way collision does
