Quick questions
Questions about a spreading windshield crack
- What should I do right after I see a chip?
- Do not press on the damage or put household material into it. If practical, avoid sudden heating or cooling of the damaged glass and hard jolts until it is assessed. These steps cannot guarantee the damage will stay put.
- How fast can a windshield crack spread?
- There is no universal clock. Temperature conditions, driving vibration, wind pressure, and outside physical stress can extend existing damage. The current damage needs to be assessed.
- Can a photo tell whether the damage is repairable?
- A clear photo can help us screen what is visible. It cannot show every detail about depth or contamination, and it cannot predict future growth. Send the vehicle, service ZIP, and clear photos so we can tell you what the repair decision needs next.
- What decides repair or replacement?
- Size alone does not decide it. Depth, location, contamination, edges, driver view, and vehicle features can all matter. Our repair-versus-replacement guide explains the full assessment; the final answer still depends on the current damage and vehicle.See what decides repair or replacement →
