As technology advances, the complexity of our windshields keeps pace. Depending on your vehicle’s make, model, and year, your windshield might be equipped with Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS). These systems often require calibration to ensure optimal functionality, providing safety for you and your loved ones on the road.
At Orlando Mobile Glass, our specialists understand the importance of calibrating the safety systems of ADAS-equipped windshields to the manufacturer’s specifications during replacement. In some cases, certain vehicles may need calibration at our dedicated in-shop facilities.
Understanding Windshield Calibration
Calibrating a windshield goes beyond the glass itself. While your windshield may seem ordinary, it incorporates advanced technology that surprises many. The calibration process often involves working with the ADAS functions.
ADAS features are designed to enhance road safety and encompass various components and functionalities that vary depending on your vehicle’s make and model. Common ADAS features include:
- Adaptive cruise control
- Collision warning systems
- Parking assist systems
- Rearview cameras
- Lane departure warning systems
- Intelligent speed adaptation
These advanced systems rely on dynamic sensors and cameras positioned around your vehicle. These devices collect data that is processed by the ADAS, providing audio or visual warnings about potential hazards. In some cases, ADAS can even temporarily stop the vehicle to prevent accidents or divert it away from risks.
Once we replace your ADAS windshield, our calibration process adjusts and tests the cameras and sensors on the windshield to ensure proper functionality.
Why Windshield Recalibration is Necessary
When technicians remove or disconnect ADAS-related parts from your windshield for repairs or replacements, these parts need to be reconnected. Precise alignment and calibration according to manufacturer specifications are crucial for the ADAS system to work correctly.
Potential Risks of Neglecting Windshield Calibration
Neglecting the recalibration of ADAS components associated with your windshield can lead to various issues:
- Failure of safety features: The safety features may malfunction or stop working altogether, increasing the risk of accidents. This is particularly critical if you heavily rely on these features.
- False warning lights: Malfunctioning ADAS systems can trigger unnecessary warnings, which can be annoying for the driver and potentially dangerous if responded to incorrectly.
- Diagnostic codes: A warning light on your dashboard may illuminate due to the vehicle’s computer memory displaying an ADAS-related diagnostic code. Uncertainty about the code’s meaning can cause concern and may require time and expense for proper diagnosis.
Duration of ADAS Calibration
On-site calibration typically takes around 1 to 3 hours or more, and sometimes can be completed during the same appointment as your windshield replacement.
The calibration process begins with the camera aiming procedure. Our experts work in collaboration with your vehicle’s computer to optimize camera alignment, ensuring precision. This involves restoring the system to factory settings and conducting tests to confirm successful calibration.
Dynamic calibration may require additional time. During this phase, the vehicle needs to be driven to calibrate the camera. We will inform you if this step is necessary for your specific vehicle. While most glass adhesives allow immediate driving after installation, some may require a one-hour waiting period.
Cost of Windshield Calibration and Insurance Coverage
Investing in windshield recalibration during replacement or after repairs that may have affected ADAS functionality is essential. Consult with our auto glass technicians to determine if windshield calibration is recommended for your vehicle.
The cost of calibration varies depending on factors such as your vehicle’s make, model, and the location of service. Estimates are tailored to your vehicle’s specifications, with average costs typically ranging from $400 to $700.
In many cases, car insurance policies cover these costs. At Orlando Mobile Glass, we collaborate with your insurance provider to arrange coverage for windshield calibration.
We offer comprehensive windshield repair, replacement, and calibration services in Orlando, Florida. While our mobile repair technicians can come to your location in some cases, windshield calibration for ADAS systems requires a controlled environment and a flat surface, and therefore is not performed via mobile glass repair.
As an approved service provider for major insurance companies, Orlando Mobile Glass is here to assist you in navigating the complexities of auto glass claims.
