Back Window Replacement: How To Tell If Your Car Needs One

Think chips and cracks are limited to your front windshield? Think again. Several factors will determine whether your vehicle requires a full rear windshield replacement rather than a repair. You’ll need to consider the size, depth, and location of the damage. The service professionals at Glass Doctor can help assess these variables to determine whether repair or a full rear window replacement is more viable.
  • Size of Damage: If your rear windshield fracture is larger than a certain size, usually defined as a chip or crack larger than a dollar bill (around 6 inches), rear window replacement is typically necessary.

  • Location of Damage: Damage near the edges of the glass usually requires a replacement rather than a repair. Fractures in this area can affect the integrity of the window seal, leading to water leaks, air leaks, and potential corrosion of the frame.

  • Depth of Damage: Chips or cracks that have penetrated deep into the back windshield's layers may prevent a repair from restoring structural integrity.

  • Previous Repairs: If your glass has already undergone multiple repairs, it may be more prone to further damage, making back window replacement the better option.

    I had a break-in at a business so I called the Glass Doctor. They were very nice and were able to get out to me first thing that morning and replace the glass in a very timely manner. The glass door looks great. I would recommend them to anyone.

    We just had Glass Doctor fix our panes, 8 in our house. They do beautiful professional work. I recommend them to everyone. Our windows were 3 panes thick and the seals broke. There was steam in between the glass and it looked chalky.
