Insurance Issue Rear Glass (Geico)

[BigApple]

Rear Glass damaged. Not repairable. Needs replacement.
Geico Tells me i have a deductible of $50. (Sounds good so far)
Here it comes.
The dealer wants about $1500 for the new glass and about $1500 for labor.
Geico says they will only pay labor at max $40/hour. (Not a dealership price)
Geico charges more in Insurance for the Porsche but when it comes to payments... no such thing.

Did this happened to anyone and how can this be rectified?

That should be specified in your policy fine print. Some insurance companies offer options, anywhere from full price/no deductible to self pay. Some stipulate use of their glass contractor.

I think you’re getting double scammed.
Dealer: 3 hrs to change the screen, put 6 hrs (just to be sure) x 250/hr = 1500
Insurance: How much does VW charge per hr? 200-250? right, ok put 40 for Porsche.
Can think of many scammy professions and dealers/insurers are definitely up there
50 deductible on a Porsche screen means anything over a sneeze = new screen time $$$$
