Fix Your Cracked Auto Glass

Why You Need Comprehensive Auto Glass Repair Services

Cracked or chipped glass in any part of your vehicle compromises safety. Addressing one damaged area while leaving another—like repairing the windshield but ignoring a crack in the rear window—only solves part of the problem. That’s why we assess the full scope of your auto glass needs, inspecting every window and panel before providing the appropriate solutions.

To complete that process, we also recalibrate your ADAS features when required. Many modern vehicles have sensors and cameras mounted to the windshield that control various safety systems. We take care of that calibration in-house, so your vehicle is fully repaired and responsive.

Why You Should Never Drive With a Cracked Windshield

Even small cracks can weaken the structural integrity of your windshield. In a collision, the glass plays a key role in supporting airbags and protecting passengers. Any damage reduces its ability to do that. Cracks also tend to spread, often without warning. A break that starts out of sight can quickly move into your line of vision or worsen due to changes in temperature or road vibrations.

Is It Illegal To Drive With a Cracked Windshield?

In Somerville, MA, state law prohibits driving with a windshield that obstructs the driver’s clear view of the road. Even if the crack seems minor, it can still be considered a violation.

Enforcement is up to the officer’s discretion, and a damaged windshield could result in a ticket or inspection failure. It’s both safer and smarter to get it fixed before it becomes a legal issue.

Do You Need To Fix Windshield Damage To Pass a Vehicle Inspection?

Yes. Glass damage that interferes with your sight lines can cause your vehicle to fail a safety inspection. Rather than having to pay for the initial inspection, repair the damage, and then cover reinspection costs, it’s safer (and more cost-effective) to complete repairs or replacements first.

What Types of Windshield Damage Can Be Fixed?

Tiny chips and cracks in your vehicle’s front window aren’t always grounds for a full replacement. Some types of damage are good candidates for quick and affordable repairs. You’ll want to move quickly because temperature changes and even vibrations can cause windshield damage that’s small (at first) to spread and affect other areas of the glass.

Our auto glass specialists fix chips, cracks, and minor scratches that are generally under the size of a quarter and don’t occur close to any edges.

When Do You Need a Windshield Replacement?

Sometimes, rock chips and other auto glass damage are too severe for effective repair work.

Here are some signs it may be time to replace your front windshield:

  • Your vehicle’s Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensors are affected beyond what recalibration can repair
  • Chips or cracks have spread out to reach the edges of your glass
  • The damage affects your ability to have a clear view of the road ahead
  • The crack is over six inches long

In these cases, we still offer speedy service. We have many replacement glass options in stock to suit your vehicle’s make and model, and we follow proven practices to complete your windshield installation to the highest standards.

When Do You Need ADAS Calibration?

ADAS are safety features like lane departure warnings, adaptive cruise control, forward collision alerts, and automatic emergency braking. When you replace your windshield, these sensors may lose alignment and should be recalibrated to ensure your vehicle’s safety technology continues working.

ADAS calibration involves adjusting and testing these components to match manufacturer specifications, restoring their precision.

Your vehicle may need ADAS calibration when:

  • Your vehicle has any windshield-mounted sensors or cameras
  • You’ve had a windshield replacement
  • Your car has displayed sensor errors or warning lights
  • Your vehicle has been involved in a collision (even a minor one)

We’re always happy to answer your questions about how ADAS technology works, how long it takes to recalibrate, and how much it will cost to restore your vehicle’s safety sensors.
