What is ADAS?

     ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance System. It is a rapidly growing new technology that includes systems to help the driver in the driving process. Designed with a safe human-machine interface they should increase car safety & more generally, road safety. Here are some of the terms.

  • a. Lane Keep Assist
  • b. Lane Departure Warning
  • c. Forward Collision Alert
  • d. Blind Spot Monitoring
  • e. Park Assist
  • f. Adaptive Cruise Control
  • g. Adaptive Headlights
  • h. Forward Collision Mitigation / Smart City Brake

Why you need to recalibrate your vehicle after installation? A vehicle’s computer relies on the cameras/radars/lasers used by the ADAS being in the correct alignment to function properly and does not automatically adjust itself. Calibration guides the vehicle’s computer & ensures these systems are working properly. When a windshield is replaced, the camera is removed from the bracket & unplugged from the car. After the replacement is completed, the camera is reattached & vehicle recalibrated. If you choose not to have us to this, you will have to go to the dealer to have the vehicle calibrated*expensive* Even a camera that has not been unplugged from the car needs to be recalibrated to ensure proper functionality of the ADAS features & minimize the potential liability and pass our final safety tests. It is important to consider the impact of not recalibrating your vehicle.

What do we do if you don’t want us to calibrate your vehicle? If you choose not to have your vehicle recalibrate after an installation, we will remind you that your ADAS features may not function properly without the recalibration and we may encourage you to reconsider having it completed, or at least by their dealer for your safety for you and others. We may choose to ask any consumer who does not want the recalibration completed to sign a statement acknowledging their decision that they understand the potential risks involved in not having their vehicle calibrated.

What will happen if vehicle is not recalibrated? If a car’s ADAS is not properly recalibrated, the system may not function safely. If the cameras/radars/lasers on the vehicle are off by even a few millimeters they may not give accurate readings and the system may not function properly, causing your car to suddenly swerve, stop, accelerate, etc. for seemingly no reason.

We take care of your car but most importantly we take care of you. Your Windshield, if installed improperly, could result in sudden safety feature failure. Putting you & your loved ones in serious danger. When deciding where to go to get your windshield replaced, remember this.
