📍 5255 University Ave, San Diego, CA 92105
University Glass is a San Diego-based auto glass shop showing a 4.7★ aggregate rating across 89 verified customer reviews. By that measure, the location is highly rated — it rates well above the regional average for verified shops — and represents a shop with a developing review base. On ShieldFinder it is one of 37 verified shops we list in San Diego.
The shop's posted services include chip / crack repair. The shop does not bill insurance directly. If you're using comprehensive coverage, contact your insurer first to determine whether to pay up front or coordinate payment some other way. In-shop service only. That's actually better for ADAS-equipped vehicles needing static recalibration, since the bay environment is more controlled than a driveway install.
Operating schedule runs weekdays open 24 hours, with weekend hours both Saturday and Sunday. University Glass can be reached at +1 619-430-8898 or via their website at sduniversityglass.com. Calling ahead to confirm same-day or next-day appointment availability is the most reliable approach, especially after major storm events when San Diego-area shops often see surge demand.
What's notable about the California market: In Southern California, intense UV and temperature swings between inland valleys and coastal zones stress glass adhesives faster than many other markets. When filing a claim, confirm with your carrier that the zero-deductible glass benefit applies — some policies require it to be explicitly elected at policy inception.
