WINDSHIELD RECALIBRATION (ADAS)

WINDSHIELD RECALIBRATION ( ADAS )

Technology is constantly changing, and windshields are no exception. Your windshield is not just a piece of glass. Newer vehicles including based models come equipped withadvanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) on the windshield that can affect how your car functions. As windshields become more complex, so does the process for replacing them.

At Auto Glass Express Inc, we are experts at windshield replacement, including ADAS calibration. We have the expertise, tools, and technology to get you back on the road safely. Our professional CERTIFIED Technicians in ADAS calibration will restore your vehicle to its original conditions following OEM specifications.

WHAT IS ADAS CALIBRATION?

When a windshield is replaced, all the ADAS equipment such as cameras and sensors are moved. A change in camera angle of just one degree can have a huge impact on the camera’s viewing area, which can affect how the vehicle’s ADAS features will work. The calibration process adjusts and tests all the cameras and sensors on the windshield to ensure they are still working properly after it is replaced. Without calibration, the vehicle’s ADAS features may NOT function properly, which can lead to an accident.

HOW LONG DOES ADAS CALIBRATION TAKE ?

The Opti-Aim™ calibration process typically takes about 1-3 hours depending on the type of recalibration your vehicle needs. It can be completed during the same visit as your windshield replacement. Auto Glass Express uses a process called dynamic calibration, which requires the technician to drive the vehicle to calibrate the camera. The technician needs to wait at least 30 minutes for the windshield to set before the calibration process can begin. You should plan to leave your vehicle with us for at least a few hours if you need your windshield replaced and recalibrated.
