What is Jacobs Low Price Auto Glass?

Jacobs Low Price Auto Glass is a small auto glass shop on the South Central Expressway frontage in southern Dallas, beside a Pick-N-Pull yard[2][1]. Its About page states that the business “has been in business since 2000” and is “family owned and operated”, and that over those years it has “worked on virtually every type of vehicle on the market”[5]. The website uses two names: page titles say “Low Price Auto Glass”, while the header, contact block and Google profile say “Jacobs Low Price Auto Glass”; Yelp lists it as “Jacob’s Low Price Auto Glass”[7][1][8]. All three refer to the same storefront and phone number.

This handbook does two jobs. It records, with a date and a citation, what the shop says about itself and what public listings show. And it explains the outside facts that decide how a glass job turns out in Dallas: the city’s summer heat, the federal markings on safety glass, Texas rules on window film, how long new adhesive needs before the car moves, and how Texas insurers treat glass claims. Where the shop’s pages make a claim, the claim is labelled as the shop’s.

What kinds of glass work does it advertise?

The site’s menu has three service pages: windshield replacement, power window repair and “specialized glass”, which covers back windshields, door glass and vent glass[3][9][10]. The home page adds quarter glass and says the shop holds “one of the largest in shop inventories of auto glass including windshield, quarter glass, and door glass”, which it links to same-day jobs[7]. For power windows it offers “dealer parts, used original parts, or aftermarket options”[9]. A December 2024 release adds chip repair and work for commercial fleets[6]. The full list, with the wording of each page, is in what the shop does.

How do customers reach it?

The shop asks people to call for an appointment but says it also welcomes walk-ins, and describes a waiting room for customers whose repairs are done while they wait[7][9]. Google lists it as open 8:30 am to 5 pm, Monday through Saturday[1]. Quotes are requested by phone or through a web form that asks for the make, model, year and VIN[7]. Directions, a map and the posted contact details are on address, hours and walk-ins.

What do listings show?

On 9 November 2026 the claimed Google Business Profile showed an average of 4.8 stars across 751 reviews[1]. A January 2023 release, issued by the business, said it then had “more than 500 reviews on Google” at 4.8[4]. Star averages are a snapshot of customer sentiment on one platform and do not measure installation quality. See history, ratings and press.

Why does this handbook track Dallas heat?

Glass and the urethane that holds it react to temperature. To give that a local number, the editors counted NOAA’s daily maximum temperatures at Dallas Love Field for the 30 years from 1996 to 2025[11]. The station logged 746 days at or above 100°F, about 25 a year, peaking at 73 in 2011, and its hottest reading in the period was 112°F on 22 July 2018. The Love Field heat data entry has the yearly table, method and CSV; heat and windshields and temperature swings and cracks explain what the numbers mean for glass.

Which rules matter most to a Dallas driver?

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 205, administered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, applies to replacement glass as well as factory glass, and certified glass carries the letters “DOT” with a code that NHTSA assigns to the maker[12]. Texas requires safety glazing in any replaced window and limits film on the windshield and front side windows[13][14]. Those rules are explained in reading the glass label and tint and window film in Texas.
