There are many dangers to having cracked vehicle windows, especially the windshield. For one thing, when there are cracks, there is reduced visibility for drivers. A crack can also weaken the rest of the glass, and if there is an accident, it can smash, causing injury to anyone inside the vehicle. A crack can even cause the airbags to not work properly in the event of a crash, because it could cause the windshield to not be able to provide the proper support to the passenger airbag system. When a chip or crack is first noticed, it is best to have it taken care of as soon as possible to avoid any further and more expensive damage.
