Your windshield does more than keep bugs out—it’s a key part of your car’s structural safety. Even a small chip or crack can compromise its strength and put you at risk in a collision or rollover.
But how do you know when it’s time to repair or replace your auto glass?
Here are a few signs it’s time to act:
1. Chips or Cracks Larger Than a Quarter
Minor chips can often be repaired, but anything larger or in the driver’s line of sight usually requires full replacement.
2. Cracks That Spread
Temperature changes or road bumps can turn a small crack into a major hazard fast. If it’s growing, don’t wait.
3. Distorted View
If your glass causes glare, double vision, or blurred visibility, it’s not safe—especially during night driving or bad weather.
4. Edge Damage
Cracks near the edge of the windshield can weaken the entire structure, making it more prone to shatter during impact.
