The Facts About Tucson Auto Glass
An OEM windshield just means your vehicle's auto glass has been manufactured
from the original equipment manufacturer which meets the manufacturer specifications for vehicle safety and quality, protecting you, in case of an accident.As amazing as it sounds, a vehicle's windshield can vouch for at least 60 percent of the roof support during rollover accidents. Your auto glass is also responsible for supporting your passenger side airbag in front end collisions. You could almost say they're essential if an OEM Tucson windshield can absorb a 200 mph impact from a passenger side airbag.
Whats more important... a cheap windshield or your safety?
Every day people have cheap Tucson auto glass installed in their vehicles unknowingly jepordizing they're passenger's safety. If DOT only requires 80 percent windshield retention in frontal barrier crash tests, and OEM auto glass standards require 100 percent, which one would you rather have in front of you during an accident? Is it worth chancing the lives of your passengers to that other 20 percent?
