Windshield Repair or Replacement | Broadway Auto Glass San Diego
When your windshield gets chipped or cracked, it’s easy to put off dealing with it. Life gets busy, and a small mark on the glass might not seem urgent—until it spreads across your field of vision or compromises your safety. The truth is, your windshield is a critical part of your vehicle’s structure. Knowing whether to repair or replace it can save you time, money, and even protect lives.
At Broadway Auto Glass in San Diego, CA, we help drivers make the right choice every day. Here’s how to tell what’s best for your situation—and why acting quickly is the smartest move.
When a Repair Is the Best Option
In many cases, a damaged windshield can be repaired instead of replaced, especially if:
The chip or crack is smaller than a dollar bill.
The damage is not in the driver’s direct line of sight.
There’s no deep penetration into the inner glass layer.
The crack is shorter than 6 inches.
Why repair instead of replace?
It’s faster – most repairs take less than 30 minutes.
It’s cost-effective – repairs are cheaper than replacements.
It prevents further damage – stopping cracks before they spread.
Don’t wait for that small chip to turn into a costly replacement. Call Broadway Auto Glass now and fix it before it’s too late.
When Replacement Is the Only Safe Choice
Sometimes, repair simply isn’t enough to restore your windshield’s safety. You’ll need a replacement if:
The crack is longer than a dollar bill.
The damage touches the edge of the windshield.
The glass has multiple chips and cracks.
Your vehicle has ADAS technology (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and the damage interferes with sensors.
At Broadway Auto Glass, we use OEM-quality windshields, ensuring the perfect fit and optimal safety. Our certified technicians also handle ADAS calibration so your car’s safety features work exactly as designed.

Why Acting Fast Matters
A chipped or cracked windshield isn’t just cosmetic—it’s a safety risk. Your windshield provides up to 45% of your car’s structural strength in a front-end collision and up to 60% in a rollover accident.
Ignoring the damage can lead to:
Weakened structural integrity during accidents.
Higher replacement costs when the crack spreads.
Risk of getting pulled over for unsafe equipment.
