Acoustic Vinyl Windshield Technology

Automotive designers are continually working to make motor vehicle interiors more quiet and comfortable. Research tests have shown that outside noise is often transmitted through the vehicle’s windshield. One way to reduce noise is to increase the thickness of the glass. However, this provides marginal noise reduction and adds weight to the vehicle.

The Differences of OEM and Aftermarket Auto Glass

An OEM windshield is identical to the original, factory installed windshield that came with your car when it was new. OEM windshields may not be manufactured by the company who made the windshield originally installed on your car, but they are identical in almost every way.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) augment a vehicle's operating systems for improved safety and better driving. ADAS safety features are designed to avoid collisions and accidents by offering technologies that alert the driver, implement safeguards and even take over control of the vehicle. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems are one of the fastest-growing segments in the automotive electronics industry.

Cleaning the Glass in Your Automobile

Cleaning the windows on your auto is a never ending task. The glass in your automobile is inundated with dirt, bird messes, bugs, and other debris on a daily basis. Clean auto glass helps you drive better by improving your visibility while driving. 

Gorilla Glass Hybrid Windshield

Corning Gorilla Glass hybrid windshield technology is a light-weight innovation set to debut on the all-new Ford GT. Inspired by advances in consumer electronics like smartphones and tablets, the three-layer hybrid window consists of Corning Gorilla Glass, thermoplastic and annealed glass applications. A Gorilla Glass hybrid windshield is thinner than traditional laminate glass, and will improve vehicle performance by reducing weight.

Avoid Using Auto Glass Companies That Offer You Unbelievable Deals

Auto glass companies paying you to do business with them seems too good to be true. Some glass companies will bill insurance companies with inflated charges for labor and parts, and by using cheap parts and inexperienced laborers, they can afford to give some money back to you. This causes everyone’s insurance rates to increase and benefits nobody but the glass company.

You should avoid using glass companies that offer you free steaks, dinners, instant cash back or other enticements to replace your windshield. Most often these companies pay inexperienced technicians below industry standard wages and require them to work 10 to 12 hours per day using the least expensive parts they can get away with.

Companies who pay you for windshield replacements are typically only worried about their high number of sales over a short period of time than they are about being there a year from now when you may need their help.

Many of these companies change names over the course of time in order to avoid warranty issues. This means you may end up paying the costs of repairs for poor workmanship and faulty parts. Some auto glass companies have even committed fraud by submitting false claims using consumer’s insurance information.

You should do business with safe and reputable companies like Pride Auto Glass. For Lifetime No-Leak Warranty windshield and auto glass replacement in the metro Phoenix west valley, call 623-594-4388!

Safe Drive Away Time

Your windshield is classified as a safety device because it provides structural strength to your car body and supports the inflation and performance of passenger side airbags.  As important as the windshield quality is, so too is the quality and proper installation of the glass.

Consumers should be aware that the focus of a Safe Drive Away Time is safety. By adhering to the auto glass adhesive manufacturer's Safe Drive Away Time calculations, FMVSS requirements are met and your car is safe to drive.
