Following these simple tips can help protect your windshield from avoidable damage, and can in turn help keep you safe. Do you have any additional tips to keep your windshield in top condition?

1. Replace Your Windshield Wipers

Once you notice your windshield wipers are unable to push away all water on the glass, it’s time to have the wipers replaced. Over time, the wiper blades will lose shape, which can put unnecessary pressure on certain areas of the windshield (instead of evenly disbursing the pressure applied by new wiper blades). Poor wiper blades alone will not damage your vehicle, but when combined with other problem areas, you’ll reduce the strength of the glass, making it more susceptible to potential cracks and chips.

2.Don’t Overload your Car — Especially the Roof

Overloading your car with excess weight is of course hard on your tires and engine, but it can also be disastrous for your windshield if you load that extra weight onto the roof. The roof isn’t made to hold cargo, and even with the help of roof racks, it’s easy to overload your car. The added weight from an overloaded roof may initially cause dents in the roof, but as more weight is added, it has nowhere to go but down — straight into the windshield. This can cause your windshield to weaken over time, or even shatter outright.

3. Treat Your Vehicle Nicely

We’ve all been there. Maybe you had a frustrating phone call or you were involved in an argument with someone else while taking a drive. To let out a little steam you slam the car door shut. In the future, don’t do this.

Slamming your car door will send shock waves through the glass, which in turn can weaken it. Think of it like an earthquake. A minor one might not do anything, but over time, the fourth or fifth minor earth quake may end up causing significant damage. So, while slamming your car door may feel good at the time, it can end up causing problems later.

4. Watch the Temperature

Temperature changes will cause the glass in your vehicle to expand and contract. Over time, extensive heat directly applied to your windshield will weaken the glass. Due to this, it’s best to pack in the shade whenever possible. The window shades don’t do much in terms of protecting the glass from the heat (although it does protect the dash from fading and cracking), so do what you can to prevent extended exposure to high temperatures.
