Auto Glass Repair and Replacement
As tough as automotive glass is, getting into a minor motor accident in the wrong place can very easily result in serious, irreversible damage to your car’s glass. And if you think you can just drive around with a broken windshield—think again.

While you might barely even notice them, your car’s glass components are technological marvels that represent several decades of research and hard-earned knowledge. Whether it’s your windshield, rear window, or any other exterior glass component, modern automotive glass plays an important role in guarding the safety of your vehicle and its passengers.
Thankfully, auto glass is made incredibly tough these days, and it can survive an incredible amount of everyday driving, including some minor mishaps. However, as tough as it is, auto glass is not immune to damage. Your car’s glass is still vulnerable to impacts from road debris, weather, and mechanical stresses.
If you drive your car often enough, small cracks and chips may eventually appear. Though you might not think that these are cause for immediate concern, leaving these minor blemishes alone can quickly escalate into bigger problems.
If you’re dealing with a damaged windshield or window, bring your vehicle to the professionals at Crack Windshield Repair & Window Tinting. We specialize in auto glass repair and replacement, serving customers in Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Upland, Chino, Chino Hills, Claremont, Montclair, Eastvale CA, and surrounding areas.
Why You Shouldn't Ignore Auto Glass Damage
A small chip or crack in your windshield might not seem like a big deal. Unfortunately, these can be subtle signs of a windshield that may be ready to give at any time, possibly while you’re driving. Even small events like temperature changes, the application of light pressure, or driving over bumpy roads can cause the crack to spread, further weakening the structural integrity of your vehicle’s glass.
Here are some important reasons why you need to address auto glass damage immediately:
- Reduced Visibility: Cracks and chips can obstruct your view of the road or cause light to refract and create a distracting glare. Either situation can put you and other people at serious risk.
- Weakened Structure: Windshields and windows are an integral part of a modern vehicle’s structural support. Damaged windshields or windows may result in the roof collapsing during a rollover or a collision.
- Increased Risk of Shattering: Even tiny cracks can indicate a weakened windshield that is no longer capable of protecting the car’s occupants in case of a minor accident.
- Legal Compliance: In California, driving with a cracked windshield on the highway is illegal and could lead to expensive fines.
Addressing glass damage promptly protects you and your car while also minimizing future repair costs and legal liabilities. At Crack Windshield Repair & Window Tinting, we thoroughly inspect and assess the condition of your car’s glass and provide expert recommendations on auto glass repairs and replacements. Get in touch with us today to keep your car safe and looking its very best.
Get Your Cracked Glass Checked Immediately
Cracks in your windshield can happen anytime and anywhere. The worst part is, it will almost always happen when you least expect it. Most cases of damaged glass are caused by flying debris, bad weather conditions, or unexpected road hazards, all things that no one really plans for. What’s more, even the most expensive grades of tempered or toughened glass windshields are still vulnerable to damage from small stones, hail, or other hard objects that may hit your car while driving.
Unfortunately, once a chip or crack has developed, these will eventually spread due to driving shocks, changes in weather, or subsequent impacts, eventually leading to larger cracks or chips that are harder to repair. Thankfully, if you catch the damage early, there is a chance that the damage can be stabilized and repaired, keeping your car safe for many more years of driving. Our team at Crack Windshield Repair & Window Tinting combines the latest tools with years of hands-on repair experience to assess the windshield damage and fix it, if possible, leaving you with a much safer car.
If you believe you can handle the repairs yourself, we also offer DIY repair kits as a cost-effective alternative. For not much more, you can have our knowledgeable professionals do the repair for you, guaranteeing the fix is done correctly and according to recognized safety standards. However, if the damage is too extensive, we may recommend a full windshield replacement to ensure your safety and full legal compliance on the road.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the signs that my windshield needs repair or replacement?
A: If you notice cracks, chips, or significant damage that obstructs your view or compromises the structural integrity of the windshield, it may need a auto glass repair or replacement. Even small cracks can spread over time, making repairs more difficult. If the damage is larger than a dollar bill or directly in your line of sight, a replacement may be necessary.
Q: How long does an auto glass repair take?
A: The duration of an auto glass repair depends on the severity of the damage. Typically, a minor crack or chip repair can take about 30 to 60 minutes. For full windshield replacements, the process usually takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the make and model of your vehicle.
Q: Can you repair a cracked windshield, or do I always need a replacement?
A: Minor cracks or chips can often be repaired if they are smaller than 3 inches in diameter and not located in the driver’s direct line of sight. Larger or more severe damage may require a full auto glass replacement to ensure your safety.
Q: Is auto glass repair covered by insurance?
A: Yes, many insurance policies cover auto glass repair. It’s best to check with your insurance provider to determine the extent of coverage and whether you’ll need to pay a deductible. In some cases, insurance companies waive the deductible for windshield repairs.
Q: How can I prevent cracks from spreading in my windshield?
A: To prevent cracks from spreading, avoid exposing your windshield to extreme temperature changes, such as sudden hot or cold conditions. Also, avoid putting pressure on the crack, and drive cautiously on rough or bumpy roads. Having the damage inspected and repaired promptly can also help prevent further issues.
Q: What should I do if my windshield gets damaged while driving?
A: If your windshield gets damaged while driving, try to pull over safely and avoid further stressing the glass. If possible, cover the crack with clear tape to prevent dirt and moisture from entering. Contact us immediately to schedule an auto glass repair or replacement.
Q: Can I drive my car after a windshield replacement?
A: After a windshield replacement, you may need to wait for a short period to ensure the adhesive has set properly. Typically, you can drive your vehicle after about 1 to 2 hours, but we recommend avoiding high-speed driving or car washes for at least 24 hours to allow the adhesive to fully cure.
Q: What if my auto glass gets damaged again shortly after a repair or replacement?
A: If your auto glass gets damaged again soon after a repair or replacement, contact us immediately. Depending on the circumstances, we may offer a warranty or discount on future services. Our goal is to ensure your safety and satisfaction, and we’ll work with you to address any issues.
