A windshield is part of your vehicle’s safety system. It helps with visibility, roof support, airbag performance, and camera/sensor alignment on many newer vehicles. If you are not sure whether the damage can be repaired or needs replacement, Team Acme can inspect it and recommend the safest option.
➤ The chip is small.
➤ The damage has not spread.
➤ The chip is not near the edge.
➤ The damage is not in the driver’s main line of sight.
➤ The damaged area does not interfere with cameras or sensors.
➤ Dirt, water, or debris has not been sitting in the chip for too long.
➤ The crack is long or spreading.
➤ The damage reaches the windshield edge.
➤ The crack is in the driver’s view.
➤ There are multiple cracks or impact points.
➤ The glass is pitted, hazy, or hard to see through.
➤ The damage is near ADAS cameras, sensors, HUD areas, or rain sensors.
➤ A previous repair failed or the crack keeps growing.
Many newer vehicles have cameras and sensors mounted near the windshield. These systems may support features like lane departure warning, forward collision alerts, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, rain sensors, and other driver-assistance technology.
When the windshield is replaced, those cameras and sensors may need to be calibrated so the vehicle can read the road correctly. Team Acme can help you understand whether your windshield replacement may require ADAS calibration based on your vehicle’s year, make, model, and factory features.
ADAS calibration is the process of aligning and verifying the cameras or sensors used by your vehicle’s driver-assistance systems.
No. Not every vehicle needs ADAS calibration after windshield replacement. It depends on your vehicle and the features built into the glass or mounted near the windshield. Vehicles with forward-facing cameras, lane departure systems, collision avoidance systems, or other driver-assistance features are more likely to need calibration.
Yes, if your vehicle has windshield-mounted cameras or sensors for features like lane assist, collision warning, adaptive cruise control, or automatic emergency braking, ADAS calibration may be required after windshield replacement. If the windshield camera is not positioned or calibrated correctly after replacement, features like lane assist, collision warning, or automatic braking may not work as intended.
Get back on the road safely with professional ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) calibration services in Henderson, NV. After any windshield replacement, your vehicle’s safety features—like Lane Departure Warnings, Blind Spot Monitoring, and Adaptive Cruise Control—must be precisely recalibrated.
At Team Acme, our expert technicians ensure your systems are accurately aligned using advanced tools and diagnostics. Whether you're looking for auto glass repair in Henderson NV or custom-made auto glass, we make sure your vehicle’s ADAS performs like new after every service.
Your windshield replacement may be more complex if your vehicle has:
Windshield replacement cost can vary when a vehicle has ADAS features because the job may involve more than replacing the glass. The correct windshield must match the vehicle’s factory options, and the cameras or sensors may need to be calibrated after installation.That is why two vehicles with similar-looking windshields can have very different replacement costs.
When your vehicle may have ADAS features, Team Acme will:
After windshield replacement, the adhesive needs time to cure so the glass can seal properly. Team Acme provides aftercare instructions after installation, but these are the main things to keep in mind after your new windshield is installed.
WAIT BEFORE DRIVING
Do not drive immediately after installation. The adhesive needs time to cure, and Team Acme will let you know the safe drive-away time for your vehicle.
LEAVE THE TAPE ON
If tape is applied after installation, leave it on for at least 24 hours. This helps keep the glass in place while the seal sets.
AVOID CAR WASHES
Stay away from high-pressure car washes for at least 2 days after windshield replacement. If needed, wash gently with mild soap and water.
DRIVE CAREFULLY
Avoid rough roads, uneven terrain, and slamming your doors soon after installation. Sudden pressure changes can affect the new windshield seal.
LEAVE A WINDOW OPEN SLIGHTLY
When you close your door, pressure can build inside the vehicle. Leaving a window slightly cracked when parked can help reduce pressure while the windshield seal cures.
Windshield replacement cost depends on the vehicle, the type of glass, and whether your windshield has cameras, sensors, heads-up display, rain sensors, heating elements, acoustic glass, or ADAS features. Team Acme can help you understand what may affect your quote and what to ask your insurance provider before replacement.
Insurance may cover part or all of your windshield replacement depending on your policy, deductible, and the type of glass coverage you have.
Insurance may cover windshield replacement if you have comprehensive coverage or glass coverage on your policy. Some customers may only pay their deductible, while others may have different coverage depending on their insurance plan.
The best first step is to call your insurance provider and ask:
➤ Do I have glass coverage?
➤ Is windshield replacement covered?
➤ What is my deductible?
➤ Can I choose Team Acme in Henderson for the replacement?
➤ Is OEM glass covered?
➤ Is ADAS calibration covered?
In some cases, windshield replacement may have little or no out-of-pocket cost if your insurance policy includes full glass coverage or a waived deductible. Coverage depends on your specific policy, your deductible, and the reason the windshield needs replacement.
Team Acme cannot guarantee a free windshield replacement, but we can help you understand what information to ask your insurance provider.
No, not always. If your vehicle is leased, you may not have to go to the dealership for windshield replacement. However, you should check your lease agreement and ask your insurance provider whether there are any glass requirements, OEM glass requirements, or repair documentation requirements. Team Acme can help replace windshields on many leased vehicles, but the final requirements depend on your lease, insurance policy, and vehicle manufacturer guidelines.
Some leased vehicles may require OEM glass, while others may allow high-quality aftermarket replacement glass. The safest move is to check your lease terms or ask your leasing company before replacement. If OEM glass is required or preferred, mention that when requesting your quote so Team Acme can help you understand your options.
It can, depending on your lease agreement. Some leasing companies may inspect the windshield at return and may require glass that matches the vehicle’s original equipment standards. Ask your leasing company whether aftermarket glass is acceptable before replacement.
Two vehicles can have windshields that look almost identical but cost very different amounts to replace. A newer vehicle with cameras, sensors, or heads-up display glass may require a more specific windshield and additional calibration steps.
Your windshield is part of your vehicle’s safety system, so replacement should be handled by experienced auto glass professionals.
