What to Do If There Are Large Gaps After Replacing the Windshield?

[GiaMarie]

Large gaps after replacing the windshield may be caused by incomplete removal of the original adhesive. It is necessary to seal the wider gaps between the glass and rubber strips with sealing strips. Precautions after windshield replacement: Do not wash the car within three days after replacing the windshield, and remove the tape fixing the windshield position after three days; try to avoid driving on excessively bumpy roads, and avoid sudden braking and rapid acceleration; do not insert parking permits or other cards into the gap between the windshield and the dashboard; do not drive on highways, and keep the maximum speed below 80 km/h; avoid applying window film within seven days. Precautions for windshield repair: Before repairing the car glass, thoroughly clean all dirt from the car glass. Carefully selected cleaners and related cleaning products are good choices. Turn off the defroster heating after 5-10 minutes of use, otherwise it may cause the rear windshield to crack.
