Did you know your car’s windshield is a safety device? Besides its main role of protecting passengers from wind, water and debris, a windshield can help reduce crash injuries and could even save your life.
Windshield damage can compromise driver vision in addition to the safety features described above. This makes it important to check the windshield, and other glass, for chips, cracks and pitting on a regular basis. Minor “star” or “bullseye” rock chips and small cracks, might be repairable. Any significant damage calls for windshield replacement.
You’ll also want to inspect the edges of the glass for damage to surrounding bodywork. Any problems that affect the seal of the glass to the body can weaken structural integrity and need repair. Finally, make sure the rubber windshield wiper blades are soft, pliable and clear water from the glass in a single swipe. Brittle blades can break and allow a metal wiper arm to scratch the glass.
