3 Ways to Prevent Windshield Cracks
Have you ever wondered how that crack appeared on your car’s windshield? Sometimes it’s just bad luck — but there are several ways to reduce the chances of it happening. Below are 3 simple tips to prevent windshield cracks.
1. Keep your distance from large vehicles
Oversized trucks often throw rocks or debris into the air, which can strike your windshield. Maintain a safe distance to avoid damage.
2. Avoid extreme temperature changes
Rapid heating or cooling can cause the glass to expand or contract, creating cracks. Don’t pour hot water on an icy windshield or cold water on a hot one. Let it adjust gradually.
3. Fix small chips right away
Small chips can quickly turn into large cracks. Schedule a repair or replacement with Express Auto Glass or call us at (661) 208-2081 for a free quote.
