Do I Need ADAS Calibration After Windshield Replacement?

If your vehicle uses windshield-mounted safety cameras, replacement may require camera calibration to help supported systems operate as designed.

Calibration may be required when the windshield affects a camera or sensor

Many newer vehicles use a camera positioned behind or near the windshield to support driver assistance features. When windshield glass is removed and installed, the camera’s position relative to the road may change. Calibration helps the vehicle interpret the road environment according to the applicable manufacturer procedure.

Lane departure support

Camera-based systems may monitor lane markings and issue alerts or steering assistance when a vehicle drifts.

Forward collision support

Systems may use windshield-mounted cameras to assist warning or braking functions when hazards are detected ahead.

Camera calibration

Static, dynamic or combined OEM-specified calibration procedures may be required depending on the vehicle.

When should you ask about ADAS calibration?

  • Your vehicle has a camera mounted near the rear-view mirror.
  • Your windshield was replaced or removed.
  • A dashboard warning appears after glass service or collision repair.
  • Lane departure, collision warning or related safety features behave unexpectedly.
  • Your insurer or vehicle manufacturer procedures call for calibration.

What happens during the process?

  1. We identify vehicle features and glass requirements before installation.
  2. The windshield is installed with attention to compatible camera and sensor features.
  3. When required, calibration is performed using the applicable procedure and equipment.
  4. Documentation records the completed service or any next step required.
