When a Small Crack Requires Windshield Replacement

A crack does not have to stretch across the entire windshield to be a replacement concern. Cracks near the edge can weaken the glass structure, and damage in the driver's view can affect safe visibility.

A technician will consider the length, depth, location, branching, and whether the damage has collected dirt or moisture. Previous repair attempts can also affect the available options.

Do not press on the crack or use household adhesives. Schedule an assessment before temperature changes or road vibration make the damage worse.
