Windshield camera calibration
If you own an ADAS-equipped vehicle (which many modern cars do), there's a good likelihood that your windshield needs to be calibrated by a professional to ensure that the system is operating correctly. ADAS features like rain sensors and warning systems for lane departure and even traffic sign recognition require the windshield to be in a precise position with respect to cameras as well as other devices on your car. If these are not properly placed, they may trigger false alarms or make rapid decisions based on inaccurate information, which could lead to unsafe driving.
When you replace your windshield, the camera mount is transferred from the old one to the new one. It is not a big issue, but the camera may need to "re-teach" itself where the road lines should be.
ADAS cameras need to be calibrated after replacing a windshield, airbag deployment or repair, as well as other typical service events that can disrupt their initial positioning. If you do not hire a professional to reset your camera's calibration could cause it to malfunction or give inaccurate information that could lead to a catastrophic accident.
Our highly skilled calibration specialists have the expertise and equipment to ensure that your windshield-mounted ADAS cameras back in the right spot and correctly aimed for your safety and your vehicles performance. The cost of calibration is different depending on the vehicle. However, the majority of insurance companies* will cover the cost if required as part replacing a windshield.
