More often than not, it's a car's front windshield that will suffer damage. Glass cracks and chips usually occur from flying road debris like gravel and trash that is stirred up by traffic, particularly on freeways and highways where cars tend to driver a lot faster, or on forest roads and near road works and other construction sites where the concentration of road debris is likely to be higher. But auto glass damage can happen in a number of ways. Your defroster set to hot on a really cold day can also cause extreme changes in temperature and the windshields and rear window glass on any make of car including a Ford and Toyota, BMW and Dodge, will suddenly crack. That crack will grow very quickly while the glass is weakened and may even shatter your windshield altogether making it not just unsafe to drive, but impossible to see where you're going at all. We've put together a few scenarios here that might ring true for some car owners who have already been down this road and help you to identify areas and causes for auto window repair for your vehicle.
You're driving down the freeway in your Honda sedan, you pass a big truck and you hear a tiny ting. You don't think much of it at the time. It sounds like something might have flown up from the road and caught your car and that happens all the time, right? Maybe you don't even hear anything at first over the noise of your radio, but tiny bit of movement in the rear view mirror suddenly catches your eye and you're straining to see what it could it be, only you can't seem to nail down whatever it is that's grabbing your attention back there. You carry on driving for a few more miles and then, next moment, you look back up and find that you have a hairline crack spidering through the glass of your rear windshield. The more you drive along, the bigger the crack grows.
Cars like Chevy and a Jeep, out on rough terrain, can be prone to falling branches and wildlife. Animals trying to cross roads can cause minor fender benders that lead to weakening of your rear glass and front windshields. Cracks and chips caused by falling leaf litter are also common in bad weather and can occur even in the suburbs while you're car is parked somewhere that might seem secure until you come out to collect it and bad weather and high winds have shaken loose a few branches.
Less likely to occur, but still possible, is deliberately thrown debris by pedestrians. They may not even be aiming for traffic but the wind may catch bits of trash and other things that are thrown away carelessly by other road users and that debris, especially when you are travelling fast enough, can hit your front or rear glass and cause enough damage to warrant glass repair or complete rear window replacement.
What a lot of drivers will wonder is how desperately and how quickly they actually need to have their auto window repair arranged. The answer is very quickly. Everybody is trying to save on any unnecessary cost that they can, but putting off the repair of your car, particularly if your livelihood depends on it, isn't the best place to start. Small problems with the glass on all of your windows may be fixable and getting an auto glass repair in time can actually save you big money in the long run. There are a range of fixes using materials including fast-drying and hard-holding resins which can strengthen the integrity of even chipped glass so that it holds as well as a new windshield would.

Remember that small chips, cracks and scratches in your car windshield can actually be repaired and often the process only takes about 30 minutes and can be carried out locally.

2010 Toyota Camry | 4 Door Sedan
“Services were on time and done correctly. Price was better than all others who quoted me a price to replace rear window on my car. Quotes were 80 to 150 dollars more than price I paid Alpha. I checked with four different installers. Guy who did the job seemed to know what he was doing. My only complaint is the guy could have been a little more personable with personality and should have been better dressed (a uniform perhaps) for that reason I took away a star otherwise I am satisfied with the price and service. The young lady on the phone was very friendly, polite and professional and very easy to talk with. Thanks Alpha I appreciate your help and competitive pricing. It feels good not to have been ripped off for an emergency unexpected repair on my car. ”
