Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

At MyGlass in Canada, we understand that a windshield replacement isn’t just about fixing glass—it’s about ensuring your vehicle’s safety features work flawlessly afterward. That’s why we take ADAS calibration seriously. After all, your Advanced Driver Assistance Systems are your extra set of eyes on the road, and they need to be recalibrated precisely after any windshield replacement. With our meticulous approach, we ensure that your ADAS functions optimally, providing you with peace of mind and a safer driving experience. Trust MyGlass for top-notch windshield replacement and ADAS calibration services in Canada.

Why is ADAS Recalibration required after Windshield Replacement?

ADAS recalibration is required after windshield replacement because many Advanced Driver Assistance Systems rely on cameras and sensors located near the windshield. When the windshield is replaced, these cameras and sensors can be disturbed or misaligned, leading to inaccurate readings and potentially compromising the effectiveness of safety features like lane departure warning and automatic emergency braking. Recalibration ensures that these systems are properly aligned and calibrated to function correctly, maintaining the safety and reliability of the vehicle’s ADAS.

Our ADAS Recalibration Process:

After windshield installation, perform recalibration of the vehicle’s ADAS systems. This step is critical to ensure proper functionality of features such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking.

Types of Calibration

Types of Calibration

ADAS Recalibration
Static Calibration

Static Calibration
This method is performed in a controlled environment, such as a workshop or calibration center. The vehicle is parked on a level surface, and specialized equipment is used to align and calibrate the ADAS sensors and cameras according to the manufacturer’s specifications. Static calibration is typically used for systems like lane departure warning and forward collision warning.

Dynamic Calibration

Dynamic Calibration
In contrast, dynamic calibration is performed while driving the vehicle. This method requires specific conditions, such as a straight road with clear lane markings and minimal traffic. The vehicle is equipped with a calibration tool that communicates with the ADAS sensors and cameras, allowing them to be calibrated while the vehicle is in motion. Dynamic calibration is often used for systems like adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking.

Both calibration methods are essential for ensuring the proper functioning of ADAS after windshield replacement or other repairs that may affect the sensors and cameras’ alignment. After calibration, conduct a verification test to ensure that all ADAS functions are operating correctly.

Camera Recalibration Cost

Camera calibration costs can range from $150 to $600 or more. But the good news is that with comprehensive insurance, your insurance will pay for this service.
