ADAS Calibration Services: Why It’s Mandatory with Windshield Replacements

The cameras and sensors used by Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) must be calibrated after any incident that requires a windshield replacement.

This is necessary because your front camera is moved during windshield replacement. Whenever it is moved, it must be recalibrated. If it’s even a few millimeters off, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, blind-spot alerts, and other ADAS safety systems might not function as intended.

All vehicle manufacturers consider recalibration of the front cameras mandatory whenever the windshield changes.

Our certified techs run diagnostics on each sensor to confirm data is being interpreted correctly. We service all makes and models and have the tools to calibrate the latest ADAS features.

What is ADAS Recalibration?

Automotive technology is constantly evolving, and windshields are no exception. Many new vehicles have a camera behind the windshield. This camera lets your vehicle emit an audio or visual warning when you are too close to another vehicle.

For example, it can alert you when you involuntarily cross a lane, if a vehicle is hidden in your blind spot, or even when you put on the brake in case of an incoming collision. These Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) are only possible because of this camera.

Recalibration means aligning ADAS cameras and sensors to provide their full range of intended safety features. The service involves adjusting the camera lens to capture an accurate and reliable image of the road and the vehicle. If the camera is misaligned by even a few degrees, the technology can be compromised, resulting in dangerous driving or accidents.

Recalibration is part of each window replacement because it ensures each one is optimized to detect objects, distances, and more. This is also first performed when your vehicle is prepared for sale.
