Auto Glass Safety is Important to Us

Since most vehicle owners don’t think much about the windshield in their vehicle, we would like you to be aware of some important facts about a properly installed windshield. The windshield in your vehicle not only keeps the bugs and elements out of your car, but plays an important role as part of the safety restraint system of your vehicle.

It is estimated that between 60 & 70% of the vehicle structural strength comes from the windshield. Top quality replacement auto glass and proper installation techniques directly impact your safety in the event of an accident. Many auto glass replacement shops will cut corners by using cheap aftermarket glass or inferior adhesives and installation practices to gain the highest profit margin possible. Charlie’s Auto Glass makes your safety a priority and will not cut these corners. We use only replacement auto glass that conforms to the highest OEM standards and auto glass installation techniques, backed by the highest safety standards in the auto glass industry.

A properly installed windshield has 3 primary functions in an accident. The windshield is designed to support the vehicle’s roof, but it is also engineered to allow the vehicle airbags to inflate correctly. A properly installed windshield will also reduce the chances of the vehicle occupants being ejected from the vehicle in an accident.

Trust Charlie’s Auto Glass with your next auto glass replacement so you won’t have to wonder if the auto glass replacement job is being done right. Our pledge to our customers is to do every auto glass replacement with your safety in mind.
