Frequently Asked Questions
When can I drive after windshield replacement?
Follow the technician’s safe-drive-away instructions. The required time depends on the adhesive system and conditions.
Should I inspect the trim after windshield replacement?

What should I do if I notice water where it should not be?
Contact the glass provider so the installation can be evaluated rather than trying to diagnose or seal the area yourself.

Yes. Some vehicles with windshield-mounted cameras require recalibration after windshield replacement according to the vehicle procedure.
Why should I keep my service information?
Keeping the invoice and any calibration-related documentation gives you a useful record of the windshield service performed.
