Why Repair a Cracked Windshield?

Outside of car accidents, flying rocks and metal debris are the main culprits when it comes to windshield cracks. Chips and cracks to your windshield tend to happen regularly during daily driving, especially when travelling at higher speeds on the highway. If you ignore the windshield cracks, changes in the temperature over time will make it worse. If the crack is so big that it impacts your visibility when driving, then it is a safety hazard. Don’t ignore it or look around it to save time and money. Leaving the crack or chip and driving around with it is not an option. The cracked glass may be compromised, and the windshield is part of the safety system of the vehicle.

There are several reasons why driving around with a broken windshield isn’t wise. 

• If you are involved in a front-end accident, and you aren’t wearing a seatbelt, a windshield that is already cracked can give away, allowing an occupant to be thrown through. 
• When your airbag is triggered in an accident, your windshield serves as a backdrop that directs the inflated bag towards the vehicle occupant(s). A cracked windshield is unlikely to hold up to the force, which can possibly result in an ineffective airbag deployment leading to serious injuries or fatalities. 
• Cracked glass becomes weakened structurally, and during a rollover accident, your vehicle’s roof is more likely to collapse if the windshield doesn’t hold up to the weight as it was intended to. 
• A damaged windshield can shatter unexpectedly which may cause injuries to the occupants in the vehicle.
