Why Calibration Matters After Windshield Replacement
Modern vehicles rely on cameras and sensors mounted to or near the windshield to power safety features like lane departure warnings, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. When a windshield is replaced, these systems must be professionally recalibrated to ensure they work accurately. Skipping calibration — or doing it incorrectly — can cause these safety systems to fail when you need them most.
Static vs. Dynamic Calibration
Static Calibration
Performed in a controlled environment using specialized targets and equipment. Required by most manufacturers after windshield replacement.
Dynamic Calibration
Performed while driving at a set speed on a road with clear lane markings. Some vehicles require this in addition to static calibration.
Combined Calibration
Some vehicles require both static and dynamic calibration to fully reset all ADAS systems. We handle both in a single appointment.
Verification & Testing
After calibration, we verify all systems are reading correctly and provide documentation of the completed calibration.
Our Calibration Process
Vehicle Assessment
We identify all ADAS systems on your vehicle and determine the manufacturer-required calibration procedure.
Calibration Setup
We position your vehicle precisely and set up the required targets and diagnostic equipment.
System Calibration
Using OEM-level software, we recalibrate each camera and sensor to factory specifications.
Verification
We confirm all systems are functioning correctly and clear any warning lights before returning your vehicle.
Calibration Is a Safety Requirement — Not Optional
Most vehicle manufacturers require ADAS recalibration after any windshield replacement. Skipping it can disable critical safety systems. We ensure your vehicle meets manufacturer specifications every time.
