As Uncle Ben said, “With great power comes great responsibility”. Operating and driving a N Charlotte Toyota has great power that you have to be responsible with. A part of this responsibility is making sure that you are driving defensively, maintaining your car, etc. Driving comes with risks and accidents, and a major part of that is your windshield. We often think about oil changes and tire rotations, but forget about the auto glass on your vehicle. His part is one of the most important parts of your N Charlotte Toyota because this is what protects you from road debris, and allows you to see clearly.
Despite it holding a lot of merit, your windshield is also one of the most damaged parts of your vehicle, and unfortunately the is an issue that can’t be put to the side. This is why Toyota of Clermont has advice on how to take care of auto glass repair. Check it out!
Taking Care of Auto Glass Repair
If you have a cracked windshield, don’t feel bad about it, it’s actually pretty common and can happen faster than you can say “Toyota!”. Cracks on your windshield usually happen when pieces of debris and/or rocks hit it when traveling at high speeds (i.e. the highway), and even if you’re just driving behind a truck—what is it that they’re transporting? ROCKS?! If the impact is strong enough (which it usually is), then it’ll crack the top layer of your N Charlotte Toyota’s windshield. If you leave this issue unattended, it’ll eventually grow bigger, create a spiderweb shape and weaken the structural integrity of the auto glass.
When looking into the type of auto glass reparation needed, it typically depends on the size of the crack. At Toyota of N Charlotte, we have a little trick as to how you can assess the damage yourself. If the damage looks smaller than a quarter and doesn’t have a spiderweb pattern extending from it, then you’re in the clear for a simple Charlotte auto glass repair. However, if you see cracking, lines, or a spiderweb pattern extending from the spot, then a total auto glass replacement will have to be made.
Did you know that under the North Carolina windshield replacement law you must have comprehensive insurance to file a claim to replace a windshield? Comprehensive car insurance is optional and comes with a deductible before your policy pays out for repairs. Comprehensive insurance covers damages from falling objects, fire, vandalism, animal collisions, and more. The cost of comprehensive coverage in North Carolina is among the most affordable in the nation being an average of $192 a year. Look into a comprehensive car insurance company for more information.
