Windshields play an
important role in your vehicle and need to be taken care of. However, no matter how
well-maintained and clean you keep your car, one day you might have to replace your windshield to avoid any serious damage. Here are some things you
should consider before you do so.
Check Insurance Policies
Most
car insurance policies cover the cost of your windshield, but it’s best to check if yours does or not. If your
windshield is included in your insurance, you can save quite a lot of money.
Glass Quality
Just like everything else in the market, not all glass types are the same, which is
why it’s very important to select your auto glass carefully. It’s not something
you can replace every other day. Cheap glass won’t match (OEM) specifications either and may cause many other problems. Make sure you take this into account before buying
auto glass. Ideally, you should choose
glass that meets federal safety standards. Similarly, superior adhesives are also a better choice in terms of safety.
Manufacturer Guidelines
You should understand that there’s a reason why the manufacturer of every car gives certain instructions and guidelines about the windshield. Your car’s ability to
deal with temperature, the drive-away time, and many other factors have an impact. Hence, it’s important to ensure that you are
replacing your existing windshield with the same quality of windshield that the manufacturer has recommended.
Certifications and License
It’s also very important to check the licenses of
your auto glass service provider. Make sure
that they are authorized for this job and understand the traffic laws. Getting
your services from unlicensed service providers can also put you in trouble. In case of damages, you won’t be able to claim anything either. Some companies offer a lifetime warranty, which makes them stand out from the other service providers.
