When Do You Need a Full Windshield Replacement?
Replacement is usually recommended when:
- The crack is long, deep, or spreading across the glass.
- The damage reaches the edge of the windshield.
- There are multiple chips or cracks in different areas.
- The damage is directly in the driver’s main line of sight.
- The glass is badly pitted or worn from age and road debris.
If you are unsure, bring your vehicle by our New Orleans shop and we’ll inspect the damage and let you know whether repair or replacement is the safer option.
