Why Windshield Repairs are Crucial in Winter

If you have even the smallest of cracks or chips on your windshield, now is the time to get it repaired. Winter and the temperature drops bring you a whole new range of possible issues and dangers, so the time to act is now!  Find out why driving any vehicle with a cracked windshield is extra dangerous during the colder months here, with Wizard Auto Glass!

What Are The Dangers With a Chip in Winter?

You windshield is there to protect you from dangers on the road. If you have a compromised windshield, whether it be a rock chip or a crack, you are putting you and your passengers in danger. Cold weather and temperatures further put you and others in danger.

Cold temperatures put you in danger because:

  • They can cause spreading of a crack or a chip. This could make a small, seemingly harmless crack turn into a life threatening break.
  • Can cause large shift in temperature; such as when your car is warm in a garage, but freezing outside, or when it is on and off. This temperature shift can cause further damage to your windshield and vehicle.

Why Do You Need a Repair Now?

Now that you see what can occur with a minor chip or crack during the colder months, why do you need a repair as soon as possible?

  • Having your chip repaired keeps you and your passengers, as well as all others on the road, safe from harms way. You will not risk having your windshield fully break in the cold weather.
  • Repairs a windshield, instead of replacing it, is much more cost effective. If you prevent a full break on your windshield, you will save yourself not only time and risk, but also money.
