I have a crack or ding in my
windshield- is it really important that I fix it right away?
Yes! It’s important for two reasons:
A. If the ding is small it may be repairable. That means Mikes Auto
Glass can ”mend”the break without replacing your entire windshield.
Repairing your windshield typically takes less than 30 minutes.
Best of all, in most cases, your insurance company will waive the
deductible on repair service, so it’s free to you! But the longer
you let the damage remain without having it fixed, the more dirt and
debris will collect in the break; and the more the break will
spread. If it gets too big, it’s very likely that a replacement will
be necessary.
B. The second reason to have a damaged windshield fixed is for your
own safety. The windshield is more than just a “shield”from wind and
road dirt, it’s an important structural element of your car. It
helps keep you and your passengers in the car in a front impact
accident, and keeps your car’s airbag in the optimum position so it
can function as designed. If your windshield is weakened due to
damage, it could be dangerous to you and your passengers in the
event of an accident. Also, damaged glass may cause optical
impediments when driving, particularly at night, which is a
significant safety hazard.
