Start the Year with a Clear View and a Clear Head
The countdown to the first day of school is on—but before you dive into the chaos of drop-offs and after-school activities, there’s one often-overlooked task that deserves your attention: repairing your windshield.
That little crack may not seem urgent now, but here are 5 compelling reasons to take care of it before the school bell rings.
Safety Comes First—Especially With Kids in the Car
Your windshield isn’t just for keeping bugs out—it’s a critical safety feature that provides structural integrity during a crash and supports airbag deployment. A crack, even a small one, can weaken the glass and compromise your vehicle’s safety in the event of a collision.
If you're driving with your kids, their safety starts with yours. Don't take chances with damaged glass.
Visibility Matters During Busy School Traffic
School zones, crosswalks, rainy mornings, early sun glare—visibility is everything during the school year. A crack can distort your line of sight, reflect light at the wrong angle, or spread unexpectedly while driving.
Even a slight obstruction can become a major distraction, especially during high-traffic drop-off and pick-up hours.
Don’t Risk a Failed Vehicle Inspection
In many areas, a cracked windshield can result in a failed state inspection or even a traffic citation. If your inspection is due soon—or you’re already behind—this could delay your back-to-school routine even more.
Pro tip: Repairs are typically fast, affordable, and often covered by insurance when caught early.
Reduce Stress Before Your Schedule Gets Hectic
Once the school year starts, your calendar fills up fast. Between after-school practices, homework help, and last-minute Target runs, finding time to sit in a repair shop becomes even harder.
Taking care of a windshield repair now saves you from scrambling later—and gives you one less thing to stress about during an already hectic season.
Get Back to School With Confidence (and Clarity)
There’s something satisfying about starting the school year with everything in order—and that includes your vehicle. A freshly repaired windshield is not just a safety upgrade, it’s peace of mind for every carpool, practice run, and weekend errand on your list.
