Is It Ok To Leave a Crack in Your Windshield?

Driving with a cracked windshield might not seem like a big deal at first, but it can lead to serious problems over time.

Here’s why you shouldn’t ignore a cracked windshield:

  • Safety risks: A cracked windshield can weaken the structural support of your vehicle, especially in accidents or rollovers.
  • Visibility issues: Cracks can obstruct your line of sight, making it harder to see the road clearly.
  • Worsening damage: Small cracks can quickly spread due to temperature changes, vibrations, or road debris, leading to costlier repairs or full replacement.
  • Legal concerns: Driving with a damaged windshield might be against traffic laws, leading to fines or penalties.

Abril Auto Glass Inc’s Windshield Repair Service

Our team at Abril Auto Glass Inc is dedicated to providing top-quality windshield repair services that are effective and long-lasting.

Here’s how our process works:

  1. Our trained technicians will first assess the damage to determine if a repair is possible.
  2. If a repair is feasible, we’ll thoroughly clean and dry the area before injecting a special adhesive resin into the damaged area.
  3. The resin is then cured with UV light, restoring the glass's structural integrity and making it virtually invisible.
  4. Finally, we polish the repaired area to ensure a smooth surface that will not impact visibility while driving.

All this is completed usually within 30 minutes, and you can drive away with a fully functioning windshield in no time.

Is It Better To Repair or Replace a Windshield?

A repair is usually a quick, affordable, and effective solution for small chips or cracks not in your direct line of sight. However, if the crack is large, located at the edges, or obstructs your view while driving, a full replacement is often the safer and better choice. Repairs can restore the structural integrity of minor damage, but replacements ensure you have a completely clear and strong windshield when the damage is too extensive.

How Long Does Windscreen Repair Last?

A properly repaired chip or crack can last many years without any issues as long as the repair is done using professional-grade materials and techniques. However, it’s important to remember that a repair doesn’t make the glass as strong as it was originally, so any repaired area can still be more vulnerable to future damage. To ensure the repair lasts as long as possible, avoid subjecting your windshield to extreme pressure.
