Of all the places in the Phoenix Metro Area, here’s the greatest danger to your windshield: Chandler AZ. It’s nothing against Chandler, but there is an awful lot of construction happening there. Chandler is a rapidly growing community, but that means that there are a lot of threats to your windshield’s integrity there.
Construction vehicles are a staple around the 202 and 101 loops. While most of them aren’t a big issue for your auto glass, gravel hauling trucks are a big deal. One piece of gravel bounces out of the bed, and ping! You have a new crack or chip in your windshield.
While it’s generally a good idea not to follow gravel trucks too closely, many of us know that there isn’t really a safe distance to be behind them. The gravel bouncing off the pavement isn’t really going to hurt your windshield any less. For that matter, gravel lying on the roadway is easily thrown by another vehicle’s tire, and again, you still have damage to your windshield.
While it may seem like a small amount of damage now, the worst thing you can do is ignore the chip or crack in your glass. Thanks to varying weather conditions, a small crack can become a large one. Your minor repair will essentially become a full replacement job. Construction vehicles are a staple around the 202 and 101 loops. While most of them aren’t a big issue for your auto glass, gravel hauling trucks are a big deal. One piece of gravel bounces out of the bed, and ping! You have a new crack or chip in your windshield.
If you have damage to your windshield, get it fixed immediately. Find an auto glass service that is mobile, uses top quality materials and is accepted by your insurance company. If you don’t have insurance, find the one with the lowest cash price. You’ll be thankful you did.
