SENSOR CALIBRATION

Safety Sensor Recalibration

Newer cars are more like computers on wheels than most people realize, and windshields act like the brain of your vehicle. All your front-facing sensors route into it, from your thermometer and built-in cameras to the blind-spot indicator and brake assist.

Complete Auto Glass has the industry-leading equipment needed to calibrate your sensors to protect you and your family better.

Why Do I Need to Recalibrate My Sensors?

Recalibration is required by law after windshield replacement, but it also keeps your safety sensors working properly. This means that systems like automatic emergency brake assist and lane departure warnings act as designed to prevent accidents. Recalibration also ensures they don’t misfire and turn on when you don’t need them.

Even minor differences in position or tuning on these sensitive systems can have significant impacts. For example, a front-facing camera off by a couple of millimeters means your car's eyes are off by several feet when looking down the road.
