When Should You Consider a Side Window Replacement?

Determining whether to opt for auto glass repair in Sedona, AZ or replacement when a side window is damaged will depend on several factors. While Diamond Auto Glass offers both repair and replacement services, we’re going to focus on instances where a side window replacement is the better choice.

Damage Has Weakened the Side Window

If a side window just has a minor crack or chip, it’s usually something that can be fixed with mobile auto glass repair in Sedona, AZ or similar repair services we offer. But if cracks are scattered throughout the side window or a chip has extended to a lengthy crack, then replacement is often the better option.

We say this because issues of this nature tend to affect the structural integrity of a side window. However, we’ll perform an initial evaluation to determine if this is the case before making a recommendation. Other types of serious damage usually warranting replacement rather than repair include situations involving:

• Multiple hairline cracks likely to turn into bigger ones
• Damaged to the tracking system on the window
• Issues affecting the safety or stability of the side window

The Side Window is Clearly Damaged Beyond Repair

There are some situations when the clear choice is auto glass replacement in Sedona, AZ. For example, a side window that’s smashed into pieces should be replaced. This is also true if there is only a partial window left. Regardless of the extent of the damage, our technicians will quickly and cost-effectively replace your side window and/or tracking system.
