"In an Accident, Car's Windshield Plays Critical Role"
Provided by:
In an accident, your safety could depend on your windshield. If it's been replaced, improper installation, poor quality glass or the wrong adhesive could cause serious problems. "The windshield is a critical component of your car's safety system," says Russ Corsi, Manager of Technical Services for PPG. "It positions the passenger side airbag. If your windshield becomes dislodged because it was improperly installed, the airbag can't protect the passenger. It also helps support the roof. In fact, the windshield is integral to the structural integrity of the roof." Corsi says there are four elements to a quality windshield replacement:
-- A professional installer.
-- The right glass.
-- The right adhesive.
-- A warranty.
