In many cases, you can simply repair your windshield and be done with it. This is often the case when it’s superficial damage, like a small chip or crack that can be easily mended. In other, more extreme, cases a full replacement could be required. This is done when a windshield’s integrity looks to be failing and as such poses a risk of completely shattering while on the road, leaving you without protection. One of the signs you should get your windshield looked at is if you notice that there’s a crack or chip in it. A tiny crack or a small chip might seem like it’s not a big deal, but over time they could become bigger and develop into a real problem. They could have weakened the windshield's integrity enough that it eventually breaks and a simple repair becomes a complete replacement, costing you a lot more time and money. That’s why we recommend bringing your vehicle to our service center and having us inspect it right away if you notice a chip or crack!
It’s also a good idea to have all other glass surfaces inspected on your vehicle, not just your windshield. This includes the door windows and your rear window. You want to make sure you have the highest possible integrity while on the road and thus the best possible safety.
So, if you spot a chip or crack in any of your vehicle’s glass surfaces, let our agents at Colonial Toyota know today! We’ll get to work on repairing or replacing it as fast as possible. To learn more about our glass repairing services, or to know what other services we offer, contact us today!
