Your windshield is an essential part of your car’s safety system, so it’s worth it to keep it in good condition.

When Your Windshield Is Cracked

Your windshield is made up of several layers, with glass on the outside and a plastic layer sandwiched inside. Some small chips that only penetrate the outer layer aren’t an emergency but can grow over time into more substantial problems. Larger chips, especially those larger than a dollar bill, or cracks that reach the inner layers can be serious safety hazards, though, so make sure to come in for service as soon as possible.

 

When You Need New Wiper Blades

Generally, you should replace your windshield wiper blades every six to twelve months. However, heavy use in intense weather—like a snowy Illinois winter—can make them wear out faster. If you’ve noticed your wipers having trouble clearing away the windshield, it’s time to come in and have them replaced.

 

When Your Wiper Fluid Isn’t Working

If your windshield wiper fluid isn’t spraying properly, you may have an issue with your fluid system. First, make sure your wiper fluid is topped off. If that doesn’t solve your problem, the nozzles or the fluid lines may be clogged and will need to be cleaned out by our team of service professionals.
