quarter window was broken in my honda civic. This is a leased car with full coverage. I am concerned about the best course of action to take. I don't know how much cost+labor for something like this but it cant be more than 200$. So Im willing to pay for this myself. Does it make sense to take car to the dealer where I leased the vehicle or can I go to any repair shop to get this done? My concern if i take it to honda dealership it will affect my payment when I'm returning as there "was damage to the car".

    In some states, there is no deductible for glass breakage, so you might consider filing a claim, if that is the case.

    You can go to any repair shop that does quality work. The glass can be aftermarket, if it meets factory standards. Your dealer doesn't care if your car is leased, they don't own it, the bank does.

    I've turned in leased cars that had $11K in body damage repaired. As long as it's done correctly, it has no effect on your turn-in.
