Can Car Glass Shatter Automatically?
1 Answers
Both the front and rear windshields of a car can shatter due to the material of the glass itself. Aftermarket glass is more prone to shattering, and even original factory glass can sometimes crack. Therefore, if cracks appear, it is advisable to immediately return to a 4S shop for inspection to determine whether it is due to poor original factory quality or external factors. Below are some maintenance methods for car window glass: 1. Proper use of windshield washer fluid: There are many types of windshield washer fluids on the market, but they mainly fall into three categories: summer-use windshield washer fluid, winter antifreeze windshield washer fluid, and special antifreeze windshield washer fluid. Summer-use windshield washer fluid is primarily used to remove insect residues from the windshield, while winter antifreeze windshield washer fluid ensures that car components are not damaged when temperatures drop below -20 degrees Celsius. 2. Car window tinting: A thin layer of heat-insulating film can make a significant difference, not only blocking the scorching sun but also providing heat insulation and UV protection. Car heat-insulating films are categorized into front and rear windshield films and side window films. Dark tinting is most unsuitable for the front windshield. Additionally, when selecting the UV protection index of the heat-insulating film, the higher the better, as it protects the dashboard components from premature aging caused by prolonged sun exposure. 3. Purchase glass insurance for your car: Glass breakage insurance is a type of commercial insurance where the insurance company compensates for the loss of the insured vehicle's glass during use. Glass breakage refers to situations where only the windshield or window glass of the insured vehicle is damaged.
