It’s not safe to drive around with a cracked or chipped windshield, and that’s why car rear windshield replacement is so vital.
But how do you know when it’s time for a rear windshield replacement, what is the windshield replacement process, and what should you look for in a replacement company?
Keep reading for the answers to these questions and more.
When is it Time For Replacement?
When it comes to car windshields, minor cracks and chips can progress quickly into bigger issues. Your rear windshield provides an extra layer of protection in case of an accident, and protects you from inclement weather and flying rocks and debris on the road, and that’s why it’s so important that its integrity not be compromised. Additionally, the adhesive around your rear windshield can begin to corrode, leading to leaks and potentially water damage. At the first sign of chipping, cracking, or leaking on your rear windshield, it could be time to start looking into getting a replacement.
How is a Car Rear Windshield Replaced?
The process of replacing a rear windshield typically goes as follows:
- Initially the damage on your rear windshield will be inspected by a licensed professional.
- Next, the damaged glass will be carefully removed.
- All stray glass will be vacuumed from the vehicle and surrounding area.
- A brand new windshield will then be inserted into the empty space.
- All rear windshield functions such as defrost will be tested to make sure they are functional.
- Finally, the vehicle is vacuumed once more to ensure that no glass shards remain.
When your windshield is replaced, your replacement service will ensure that the glass is the same color, width, shape, and contour as your original windshield for a seamless finish.
