Auto Glass replacement in Phoenix, AZ?

Hello, I don't suppose any locals could recommend an auto glass replacement company in Phoenix? I have a nasty crack that was hiding behind my rearview mirror and has now spread halfway across the drivers side Hoping I can get it fixed before Sevenstock. Thanks.

Hey man ,,Just call someone in the yellow pages ,like a big company that offers free steaks. LOL
You know the ones that advertise on the radio. Just had mine changed by a recommended company form Berge Mazda. Can't remember the name of the company though.
Call dealer or your insurance company. See ya on the 27th.

Thanks for the warning Sue. I knew some one told me about a bad auto glass experience with their 8. Glad they made good.

I ended giving Izon Auto Glass a call. Hopefully it works out OK.

It feels like forever since I've seen you all. I got so excited for Sevenstock I could have sworn it was happening this weekend up until Thursday. I was packed and reay to go LOL at myself.

Jeff - You got it man. I'll let you know what kind of job they do. My wife has used them twice with no complaints but she's not exactly as picky about her car as I am.

Hey Pool! I've been good and you? Just been working my *** of trying to keep the bills paid. Thanks to my screw up I guess I'm taking almost 2 weeks off Definately need it. I know you were swamped for a while too. Hope things got easier.

Sue - Thanks again and I'll definately let you know how it turns out. Me too, I never thought I'd want a weekend to go by so fast but I'm actually hating the fact it's only Saturday the 21st

Pool and Easy, Thanks and I'm definately still around.

Pool give me a call on Monday or early Tuesday if you're still up for some cleaning. I need to get my interior done at the very least before I drop it off for the recall on Wednesday.

No. I know the guys at Avondale have been doing a lot for the local Mazda's but I'm still taking mine to Barry. He's been nothing but good to me and we've become friends with as much as we see each other. Just wouldn't be the same walking into service and not seeing Barry, Jennifer and Patsie. It's crazy but I actually look forward to taking my car in.

I used to feel that way until my service manager left the other place. Once he left, I was history.

Definitely understandable Pool. I thought about leaving a couple times after Dwight left Biddolph. Guess it had to do a lot with my relationship with Jennifer and Patsy as to why I stuck around. Barry definitely comes off as tough but once he knows you're not BSing him he is actually a really nice guy.

It's so hard to find any one in a service industry that actually cares. When you find them make sure you let them know they are appreciated. Glad Avondale seems to be one of those places with good people.

So far so good Izon got the job done in under a 1/2hr and everything looks great. Plus there's no more smokers tar on my window. That stuff never seems to come off right.
