Auto Glass & Vehicle Safety
The importance of auto glass, especially windshields, is a crucial component of your vehicle’s structural framework and safety systems.
- Supports the Vehicle Structure: It supports the vehicle's frame, especially the windshield which helps maintain the roof's position in a rollover accident.
- Airbag Functionality: In the event of a collision, the windshield helps ensure proper deployment of airbags, cushioning and protecting the passengers.
- Visibility: Clear, undamaged auto glass provides better visibility, reducing the risk of accidents.
- Environmental Barrier: It acts as a protective shield against external elements such as wind, rain, and airborne debris.
- Impact Absorption: Quality auto glass helps absorb and distribute the force of an impact, reducing the severity of injuries in an accident.
Our QA Collision auto body shops know that just like seat belts, airbags, and anti-lock brakes, a well-installed windshield is a key safety feature that protects you in different ways during an accident.
