You’re driving down the road and a rock bounces up and hits your windshield. No one wants a rock to hit their windshield, however, it is something that is fairly common, especially with all the building and road work currently going on in the Prescott area. Rocks may fly out of trucks carrying gravel or rocks, debris on a roadway may be kicked up while cars drive over it, or a rock may be kicked up from a dirt roadway as you drive along it. Regardless of why or how it happened, Able Auto Glass, mobile windshield repair company in Prescott, would like you to know what to do if a rock hits your windshield and leaves a chip behind.
Don’t ignore it - A small chip can grow through something as simple as the vibration from normal driving, or it may crack as the window contracts and expands with the temperature. If you have any sort of imperfection on your auto glass, you want to deal with it or the situation could end up worse.
Access the damage - Take a minute and access how bad the crack/chip is. If it is a small chip or crack (less than 6”) it can probably be repaired. If the crack or chip impairs the drivers view or if the crack is more than 6”, you will need to get the windshield replaced.
Get it repaired - If the crack/chip is small, the sooner you get it repaired the less chance the damage has to get worse. By repairing the damage quickly, you may be able to save yourself the cost of replacing the windshield.
