Auto Glass ADAS Calibration Services
Modern vehicles are equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) designed to keep you safe on the road. Features like lane departure warnings, collision avoidance, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control all rely on a network of cameras and sensors mounted directly to your windshield.
What is ADAS Calibration and Why is it Necessary?
ADAS calibration is the process of precisely aligning a vehicle’s camera and sensor system to ensure its safety features work correctly. When a windshield is replaced, the camera is moved. Even a millimeter of misalignment can cause safety systems to malfunction, potentially steering you into a different lane or failing to brake during an emergency. Calibration re-centers these cameras to the manufacturer’s exact specifications.
When Do You Need Windshield Calibration?
You should schedule an ADAS calibration service if you experience any of the following:
- You recently had a Windshield Replacement.
- Your vehicle’s dashboard is displaying a camera or sensor error code.
- The camera has been physically disconnected or remounted.
- Your vehicle recently underwent significant suspension work or a wheel alignment.
- You were involved in a minor collision that jolted the vehicle.
The Auto Glass Calibration Process
At Five Star Auto Glass, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to perform comprehensive calibrations. Depending on your vehicle’s make and model, we will perform either a Static Calibration (using highly specific target boards in a controlled shop environment) or a Dynamic Calibration (driving the vehicle at specific speeds on clearly marked roads so the system can recalibrate to the environment).
ADAS Calibration Cost & Insurance
The cost of windshield calibration depends on the complexity of your vehicle’s safety systems. Because calibration is a mandatory safety requirement following a windshield replacement on equipped vehicles, the calibration cost is almost always covered by comprehensive auto insurance policies alongside the glass replacement itself.
Don’t compromise your safety on the road. If you have questions about your vehicle’s ADAS features or need to schedule a Windshield Replacement and calibration, Contact Five Star Auto Glass today for professional, manufacturer-approved service.
