Cracked Windshield? Here’s What You Need to Know About Auto Glass

Whether it’s a tiny rock chip or a full windshield crack, damaged auto glass is more than just an eyesore—it’s a safety risk. Your windshield plays a vital role in the structural integrity of your vehicle and the proper deployment of airbags. That’s why timely repair or replacement is crucial. At Bumper to Bumper Body & Paint in Scottsbluff, we specialize in auto glass repair and windshield replacement for all vehicle makes and models. Here’s what you should know:

When Can a Windshield Be Repaired?

If you’ve got a chip smaller than a quarter or a short crack that hasn’t spread, you may not need a full replacement. Windshield chip repair is a quick, affordable solution that can restore strength and visibility—if caught early.

When Replacement Is the Better Option

Larger cracks, damage in the driver’s line of sight, or broken side and rear windows usually require auto glass replacement. We use OEM and high-quality aftermarket glass to ensure a perfect fit and crystal-clear view.

Why ADAS Calibration Matters

Modern vehicles often include Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), like lane departure warnings or forward collision alerts. These systems rely on sensors mounted behind the windshield. After a replacement, ADAS calibration is essential to make sure your safety features function properly. We handle that for you—no need for a second stop.
