Windshield Repair Service Video

A small chip in your windshield can spread if left alone. Glass expands with heat and cold, road bumps, and body flex. A chip that looks minor today can turn into a longer crack.


Technicians should check a windshield chip because heat, cold, and vibration can cause the damage to spread.


Your windshield does more than block wind. It helps protect you, supports the roof area, and helps the airbag work properly in some crashes. That is why you should not ignore windshield cracks in the driver’s view.


Springfield's roads and weather can worsen glass damage. Cold Ohio mornings, hot afternoons, potholes, and gravel around US-40, I-70, and Urbana Road can add stress to a small chip.


At Zima Automotive, we believe we should check small problems before they grow. If the glass damage is too large, too serious, or in the wrong spot, repair may not be the right choice. In that case, replacement may be safer.


Drivers from Urbana and Mechanicsburg may visit our Springfield shop when a chip appears after highway driving or road debris. If you see a windshield chip or crack, call Zima Automotive at (937) 342-3911.


Start with our auto repair services if you want the vehicle checked during your visit. If you are already scheduling an auto service near I-70, have the windshield chip checked before it spreads into a larger crack.
