When Do I Repair and When Do I Replace?

Arizona law lets you choose repair or replacement, but insurers usually follow ANSI Z26.1 guidelines:

  • Repair small damage outside the driver’s primary sight line & not in the outer 2″ edge band.
  • Replace anything larger than a credit card, deep enough to hit the inner PVB layer, or intersecting ADAS camera zones.

ADAS Calibration Ensures Your Safety Features Still Work

  • Lane-keep cameras shift if the new glass sits 1 mm off-center.
  • Static (target board) and dynamic (road-drive) methods take 30–60 min.
  • Skipping calibration voids OEM safety warranties.
