Frequently Asked Questions
Can a Rear Window Be Repaired?
Unlike front windshields, rear windows typically can’t be repaired if damaged. They are made of tempered glass, which shatters into small pieces for safety. If your rear window breaks, replacement is the only option to restore your vehicle’s functionality and appearance.
What About My Rear Windshield Wiper?
Your rear windshield wiper is designed to clear rain, snow, and debris for better visibility. If it’s damaged during a rear window break, our technicians will inspect it and replace it if needed, ensuring your rear wiper is fully functional after the replacement.
How the Rear Windshield Is Different Than the Front One
Rear windshields differ from front windshields in material and purpose. The rear is made from tempered glass, while the front uses laminated glass for added strength. Additionally, rear windows often include defrosting features and may have wipers, unlike front windshields.
Rear Windshields Vary in Shape and Features
Rear windshields come in various shapes and sizes to fit each vehicle model’s design. Many include integrated features like heating elements for defrosting or an antenna for radio signals. These unique characteristics ensure optimal performance and vehicle compatibility.
