Able Auto Glass asks Prescott drivers: How old is your car...how much wear and tear has your windshield endured?

Able Auto Glass reminds Prescott drivers to have their windshield inspected for pittingYour car’s windshield is something that is often taken for granted. Other than keeping it clean, it’s generally not given much thought. Wear and tear to your windshield that occurs over time can escape your notice. Able Auto Glass reminds Prescott drivers that the surface of your vehicle’s windshield may become marred and create visibility and safety problems.

Have you considered how important your windshield is to your driving safety? Windshields have evolved from flat, plain glass in the early 1900s, to modern, laminated safety glass. Today’s windshields are made from two sheets of curved glass with a thin layer of plastic sandwiched between them. This “safety” glass is designed to offer the highest level of safety in case of breakage.

  • Your windshield is part of your vehicle’s safety restraint system.

Your windshield does much more than shield you from the wind. The windshield is part of the structural integrity of your vehicle, and may prevent passengers from being ejected in the unlikely event of a crash or rollover. If the windshield is pitted, the integrity of the glass is compromised and puts you at risk.

  • Damage to your windshield’s surface can create visibility problems.

It’s easy to recognize a chip or crack in a windshield--the obvious signs of damage. They usually occur suddenly, such as when a rock hits the windshield. But the pitting that occurs gradually is just as serious a safety hazard. Winter weather, dust storms, and even years of exposure to the sun and UV rays can weaken the surface of the glass. The resulting wear and tear causes distortion and glare, or even a windshield that looks hazy after it has been cleaned.

If you’re experiencing glare, haziness or suspect that your windshield may be pitted, you owe it to yourself to have your windshield inspected. If your windshield is pitted, the only remedy is replacement. Trust the experts at Able Auto Glass to perform an inspection and determine if windshield replacement is warranted. We use quality glass from trusted manufacturers, and we offer mobile glass service in Prescott. Contact Able Auto Glass today at 928-515-4833.

Able Auto Glass helps you decipher those chips and cracks--when do you need to replace a windshield in Prescott?

Able Auto Glass helps Prescott drivers determine when to replace a windshield with chips or cracks
Driving in our local area with all of the construction happening, chips and cracks often form on your windshield. Able Auto Glass helps you decide when it is time for windshield replacement in Prescott. We find that most damage comes in the form of a crack or a chip or both. A chip is usually the point of impact and a crack is a distinct line that forms.

The first thing to determine, is can the windshield be repaired or does it need to be replaced? Whether or not you can repair depends on:

Size of damage
A general rule to follow is a chip smaller than a quarter and a crack shorter than three inches can easily be repaired. Of course there are limits based on the type of crack and chip as to whether a repair can take place.

Depth of damage
If the damage is only on the outside layer of the windshield it is much easier to repair. Sometimes a windshield replacement is required if the damage has penetrated the inside layer of glass.

Location of damage
If the damage extends all the way to the outer edges of the windshield, it is probably safe to replace, as the integrity of the windshield has been compromised. Also, if the repair would cause the driver's side line of vision to be impaired, replacement may be the best way to go. With sensors on our windshields, the repair or replace question can be more complicated, as some of these sensors cannot be easily fixed.

Safety above all else

Driving around with a crack or chip is a safety risk. In rollovers and front end collisions the windshield is not just a shield from wind, but is a big piece of the structural integrity of the cabin. So, repairing or replacing a damaged windshield could make a huge difference if you ever find yourself in one of these unfortunate accidents.

If your windshield is damaged, let us decipher if a repair or if a replacement is in order. Don’t put yourself and others in harm’s way when we are just a phone call away. If you need your windshield or other auto glass in Prescott repaired or replaced, just give Able Auto Glass a call at 928-515-4833 today.
