A vehicle has multiple types of glass panels, all of which can be replaced depending on the extent of damage. The front windshield is made of laminated glass, which helps prevent complete breakage, while the side and rear windows are usually tempered glass, designed to shatter into small pieces upon impact. In addition to windshields, a professional auto glass technician can replace sunroofs, quarter panel glass, and door windows. Some vehicles come with heated windshields or acoustic glass, requiring special installation techniques to maintain proper functionality.
For ADAS equipped vehicles, recalibration may be necessary after windshield replacement to ensure features like lane departure warning and automatic braking work correctly. Mobile Auto Glass OC provides expert installation using OEM and high quality aftermarket glass to meet industry standards.
