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
auto glass repair experience. We are dedicated to providing quality, efficient auto glass repairs at an affordable price.
It is important not to wait to repair or replace your windshield when damage occurs. Nick’s Auto Glass has been

Why do Alaska high-schoolers choose GILA?...
1 OPPORTUNITY: GILA is an accredited high school program, FREE to any Alaska resident student (age 15-19) in grades 9 through 12. Focused studies allow students to pursue a variety of career pathways such as small engine repair, UAV piloting, welding, nursing, and more!
2 COMMUNITY: Students are given the opportunity to co-exist in a residential community with over 200 other peers!
3 SKILL-BUILDING: Having a specialized skill is invaluable—and offers advancement to higher education or entry into popular job fields. GILA graduates have landed excellent careers in study-related industries, and we’re proud to report that many of our students take these skills back to their villages and small towns across Alaska.
5
4 CULTURAL EXPERIENCES: Speaking of skills... GILA students not only build academic portfolios, but also gain experiences that build character and knowledge of local traditions that are weaved into our extracurriculars and programs.
CTE INDUSTRY PATHWAYS:
• HEALTH SCIENCE
• AUTO MECHANICS
• DRONE AVIATION
• COMPUTER SCIENCE
• COSMETOLOGY
5 “IT’S REALLY FUN!” Our students tell us some of their favorite takeways are life-long friendships established while at GILA. From bonding while ice fishing on the frozen Yukon—or around the bonfire after skinning a moose, the experiences at GILA are unmatched!
