Does your windshield have an ADAS camera?
More and more vehicles have advanced safety systems and almost all vehicle manufacturers require that the camera connected to your windshield be recalibrated when your windshield is replaced. These systems typically use front-facing cameras as part of the vehicle’s advanced safety system which are designed to protect you and your vehicle on the road, and will only be able to do so if they are functioning correctly.
When damage occurs and a windshield replacement is necessary, these camera systems need to be re-calibrated in order to maintain the integrity of the system. The windshield repair technicians at Nick’s Auto Glass are highly trained and experienced with the recalibration process. This will ensure your vehicle safety systems are working properly and continue to keep you safe on the road.
Windshield damage can be dangerous when driving.
It is important not to wait to repair or replace your windshield when damage occurs. Nick’s Auto Glass has been in business since 2009 with over 20 years of auto glass repair experience. We are dedicated to providing quality, efficient auto glass repairs at an affordable price.
